2023 temperatures fall in line with historical trends, with warm anomalies typical of El Niño, indicating dominance of sea surface temperature variability and regional forcing. Read this paper by Bjørn H. Samset et al. at: nature.com/articles/s4324…

Anomalies in annual (fire season) global means of extreme fire weather metrics (FWI95, ISI95 and VPD95) between 1979-2023. Anomalies are calculated relative to the entire period 1979-2023. Updated from nature.com/articles/s4155… continued increases in extreme fire weather

Glad to see this topic getting some traction on (social) media platforms. The figure was even featured on German national television channel ARD, thanks to Karsten Schwanke 🌦️.

With all of August now in, 2024 has effectively tied 2023 as the warmest August on record in the Copernicus ECMWF dataset. August 2024 was 1.49C above preindustrial levels, and 2024 is now virtually certain to be the warmest year on record.

RSS have finally blessed us with an update of the lower troposphere temperatures. August 2024 finishes with TLT +1.146°C relative to '79 - '98 and the Nino 3.4 region -0.07°C relative to '91 - '20. RSS TLT trend is 0.225K per decade. 📈

Summer 2024 was the hottest on record both globally and for Europe according to Copernicus ECMWF data 🌡️ It is increasingly likely that 2024 will be the warmest year on record 💙🤍💙🤍💛🧡💛🧡❤️❤️❤️💔 More: climate.copernicus.eu/copernicus-sum… #ClimateCrisis #ClimateAction

German summer (JJA) temperature anomalies from the ERA5 dataset, relative to '61 - '90. While a few contemporaries had convinced themselves that it had been particularly cold, summer 2024 was still the seventh warmest in Germany, 2.11°C above the '61 - '90 baseline.
