You talk about how smart everyone here is but you offer no data for your assertion. You mention the el nino being the cause but some might argue that climate change lead to a a bigger el nino. You have evidence showing that there is no link?
Usually this works by me saying "there's no known link between a single year's temperature and overall global warming", which is a falsifiable statement, and then you/anyone else can go ahead and provide any evidence that what I said is false.
If you can prove that a single year's temperature variance is primarily explained by global climate change, now would be the time to do it.
