One of those moments when you have to allow stats and science to override your experiental sense because here in Queensland, there was a cold front moving in from Antarctica and we experienced some of our coldest days on record. The point being that local minima don't inform the global average very much when other places at scale are so extremely above normal.
The corollary being that if we hadn't experienced this cold front, combined with other places in Australia having low temps we might have pushed this record high up a fraction.
