So it is possible to conclude that there is a temperature anomaly in the given study area for the year 2019, where there is an increase in temperature compared to long term avg.
This data can be used as evidence for
global warming because we notice that there is an average increase
in temperature compared to the long-term average. And it is also
not just an avg increase, the increase is noticed for 8/9 months
measured.
Note: Only average is not sufficient since if 4 months showed
an increase and 4 showed a decrease in temperature, for
example

In this example the increase is positive, but the variation, in general, does not show hotter temperature. 50% of the months were hotter and 50% cooler.

From March 2017 to March 2019 the atmosphere CO2 went from about
407ppm to 415.5ppm. What is the average increase in CO2 for those
two years?
