Update: Global is LAND temperatures, not LAND and OCEAN combined because of course the USA is not an ocean.
Wow.This is NOAA Global versus NOAA USA Tmax for October only.
What an amazing divergence over the last 30 years.
When the AGW cult says the USA is only 2% of the globe, remind them that USA and Global temperatures used to track pretty closely.

NOAA is creating data to support Obama’s Climate mandates. Hopefully, there will be change in 2016 to correct these politico-scientists. Will it be possible to correctly fix the historical USA temperature record?????
