The California Climate Information System, or CalCIS, would have made California the first state to create an open-source, continually refreshed climate hub.
The city also beat its daily low temperature record of 76 degrees, set in 2014, with a low of 81. Hanford bested its 1905 heat record of 113 degrees by a single degree, and tied with a low ...
High temperature records continued to fall across California on Tuesday, as the most brutal heat wave of 2022 reached its peak, offering a grim preview of what climate change has in store for the ...
According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the highest temperature ever recorded was 56.7 °C (134.1 °F) on 10 July 1913 in Furnace Creek (Greenland Ranch), California, United States, [12] but the validity of this record is challenged as possible problems with the reading have since been discovered.
For example, the average daily high in San Francisco in July and August is between 62 and 68 °F (17 and 20 °C), [1] [2] and in Walnut Creek, some 20 miles (32 km) inland, the average daily high in July and August is 84 °F (29 °C): a temperature gain of more than one degree (Fahrenheit) per mile.

A 2011 study projected that the frequency and magnitude of both maximum and minimum temperatures would increase significantly as a result of global warming. [13] According to the Fifth National Climate Assessment published in 2023, coastal states including California, Florida, Louisiana, and Texas are experiencing "more significant storms and extreme swings in precipitation".
At UCLA, the temperature reached 94 degrees; the previous record of 87 was set in 1989. Records were also broken in downtown Los Angeles — which reached 95, vs. 92 in 1989 — and Los Angeles ...
Berkeley Earth is a Berkeley, California-based independent 501(c)(3) non-profit focused on land temperature data analysis for climate science.Berkeley Earth was founded in early 2010 (originally called the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature project) to address the major concerns from outside the scientific community regarding global warming and the instrumental temperature record.
