NOAA: Warmest January in the Record

Just out from NOAA (for global average surface temperature):

0.02°C above 2016, which of course had an El Nino going on.

NOAA says:
The four warmest Januaries documented in the climate record have occurred since 2016; the 10 warmest have all occurred since 2002.
Six-months into an ENSO-neutral season, this is easily the warmest neutral year on record (0.27°C above the previous record holder season of 2013-2014.)
