There is more analysis, graphics and commentary at the link above.

As blogger Neven points out,
"Just like last month, there haven't been any major changes, and that's good, because it means things haven't gotten worse (according to PIOMAS). But things haven't improved either. After a month of below average volume growth, the difference with number 2 in the rankings (2011), has decreased slightly from 1851 to 1731 km3. On the other hand the difference with 2012, the year when the lowest minimum on record was hit, has increased from 2099 to 2491 km3."

Yeah, I know. This is just cherry picking the stats. But you have the link, look at the graphs. The trend is undeniable. The data is indisputable, but the pictures just rub your face in it.
