The temperature anomaly is the difference between the temperature at a particular time relative to the long-term mean temperature. So currently, and for the last fifteen years, the average temperature recorded across the continental United States has shown essentially zero deviation from the long-term mean temperature. Which is not to say, however, that rising atmospheric carbon dioxide is a good thing. On the contrary, as comments linked below indicate, it is potentially a very bad thing.
