It's much worse than that, since the next paragraph completely negates that finding with "the anomaly has been at about the same level for over the past 13 months".
And then there's the next graph. A bit confusing because it uses a different baseline, but where you can see the very recent trend becoming horizontal. (And can't really see any early trend because you can only distinguish 2 years.)
Honestly, I'm not sure what to take from that article. But after a needless sensationalistic introduction, I don't think I can take it at face value.
An edit: here's a much clearer view of the anomaly, from a different source, with yet a different baseline:
Very recent values have a really large error bar that the source on the article shouldn't have. But you can't use one to fill the missing data on the other.
