The warmest day on record for the entire planet was 22 July 2024 when the highest global average temperature was recorded at 17.16 °C (62.89 °F). [20] The previous record was 17.09 °C (62.76 °F) set the day before on 21 July 2024. [ 20 ]
Series of reliable temperature measurements in some regions began in the 1850—1880 time frame (this is called the instrumental temperature record). The longest-running temperature record is the Central England temperature data series, which starts in 1659. The longest-running quasi-global records start in 1850. [3]

Data from the Copernicus Climate Change Service shows global temperature anomalies reached between 1.5 and 1.6 degrees Celsius (between 2.7 and 2.9 degrees Fahrenheit), making 2024 the warmest ...
Scientists have compared this year’s weather extremes to “a disaster movie,” and new data is now revealing just how exceptional the global heat has been. Humanity just lived through the ...
This week’s global temperature records are probably the warmest in at least 100,000 years, one climate scientist explained.
Global average temperatures show that the Medieval Warm Period was not a planet-wide phenomenon, and that the Little Ice Age was not a distinct planet-wide time period but rather the end of a long temperature decline that preceded recent global warming. [1] The temperature record of the last 2,000 years is reconstructed using data from climate ...
In May the global average temperature was 1.52 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial average, marking the 11th consecutive month where the global average temperature was at least 1.5 degrees ...
