March 2014 was 4th Warmest March Globally

And we are still at points in several weather cycles that normally bring cooler than average temps. One of these might change in the next few month, as an El Nino may be developing, so we might have record high temps this year or next.

Looking at the maps at the following link, which show the departure from average for areas around the world, the Eastern half of the U.S. is an obvious exception.
