![]() ![]() ![]() What we are observing, not only new extremes but the persistence of these record-breaking conditions, and the impacts these have on both people and planet, are a clear consequence of the warming of the climate system,” comments Carlo Buontempo, Director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, ECMWF. “Eight months into 2023, so far we are experiencing the second warmest year to date, only fractionally cooler than 2016, and August was estimated to be around 1.5☌ warmer than pre-industrial levels. It is worth noting that this is happening BEFORE we see the full warming impact of the El Niño event, which typically plays out in the second year after it develops” s ays World Meteorological Organization Secretary-General Prof. In the southern hemisphere Antarctic sea ice extent was literally off the charts, and the global sea surface temperature was once again at a new record. “The northern hemisphere just had a summer of extremes – with repeated heatwaves fuelling devastating wildfires, harming health, disrupting daily lives and wreaking a lasting toll on the environment. We can still avoid the worst of climate chaos – and we don’t have a moment to lose, “ said UN Secretary-General António Guterres. Leaders must turn up the heat now for climate solutions. Surging temperatures demand a surge in action. Climate breakdown has begun. Scientists have long warned what our fossil fuel addiction will unleash. “Our planet has just endured a season of simmering - the hottest summer on record. Ī report in May from WMO and the UK's Met Office predicted that there is a 98% likelihood that at least one of the next five years will be the warmest on record and a 66% chance of temporarily exceeding 1.5☌ above the 1850-1900 average for at least one of the five years. This does not mean that we will permanently exceed the 1.5☌ level specified in the Paris Agreement which refers to long-term warming over many years. WMO consolidates data from C3S and five other international datasets for its climate monitoring activities and its State of the Climate reports. Arctic sea ice extent was 10% below average, but well above the record minimum of August 2012. Temperatures exceeded the previous record (March 2016) every single day in August.Īntarctic sea ice extent remained at a record low level for the time of year, with a monthly value 12% below average, by far the largest negative anomaly for August since satellite observations began in the late 1970s. The year so far (January to August) is the second warmest on record behind 2016, when there was a powerful warming El Niño event.Īugust as a whole saw the highest global monthly average sea surface temperatures on record across all months, at 20.98☌. August as a whole is estimated to have been around 1.5☌ warmer than the preindustrial average for 1850-1900, according to the C3S monthly climate bulletin. It was the hottest August on record – by a large margin – and the second hottest ever month after July 2023, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service ERA 5 dataset. Global sea surface temperatures are at unprecedented highs for the third consecutive month and Antarctic sea ice extent remains at a record low for the time of year.
