The 10-Year Weather Forecast
A team of British scientists has developed a short-term, 10-year projection of the climate crisis -- that's short-term because most global-warming models work with centuries. And, yes, their findings indicate it will continue to get hotter through the next decade.

Writing in Science, Met Office researchers project that at least half of the years between 2009 and 2014 are likely to exceed existing records.
However, the Hadley Centre researchers said that the influence of natural climatic variations were likely to dampen the effects of emissions from human activities between now and 2009.
But over the decade as a whole, they project the global average temperature in 2014 to be 0.3C warmer than 2004.
