"on a track to be the hottest year ever"

"2014 is on a track to be the hottest year ever" according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

That sounds familiar.

But what happened?

"the record of satellite measurements of global atmospheric temperatures now shows no warming for at least 17 years and 5 months, from September, 1996 to January, 2014, as shown on the accompanying graphic." Forbes

That time period includes 2013, 2012, 2010. All of which were reported to be on track to be the hottest year ever on record.

Maybe it's different this time.
