#ClimateChange caused the #temperature of 2024 to be 0.1degC warmer than 2023 and 0.25degC warmer than any year prior to that.

See my boss' explanation of the latest #gistemp findings on BlueSky (or see the pics below).

All surface temperature products for 2024 are now live. All show 2024 is the warmest year (very clearly). The estimates of the change since the pre-industrial (1850-1900) are more uncertain but range from 1.46 to 1.62ºC. It is therefore *likely* this was the first year that exceeded 1.5ºC.

#gistemp is one of the signature products to come out of #nasa #giss , my lab.

#helene took down #noaa ‘s ncei data center

Gistemp monthly updates depend on this data center. So they’ll be on hold for a bit

July 22 2024 was the hottest day in recorded history… likely the hottest day since the Eemian.

#gistemp

Your favorite #nasa lab in #nyc #nasagiss came out with its May temperature analysis.

Giss measures its baseline climate to the 1950-1980 average.

This past year, we are 1.3 ℃ (2.34degF) above that.

#ClimateChange this past year did something odd.

2023 wasn’t supposed to be so hot. #enso El Niño didn’t start until mid year. And yet it was a scorcher.

Gavin Schmidt (my boss) explains why we were all caught +0.2degC off guard.

wasnt hunga tonga ‘22 volcano water vapor

mightve been cleaner shipping fuels… but not all

and so we really dont know what DID happen

Climate models can’t explain 2023’s huge heat anomaly — we could be in uncharted territory

Taking into account all known factors, the planet warmed 0.2 °C more last year than climate scientists expected. More and better data are urgently needed.

(Why so hot?
Russ misspoke when he attributes some of the heat to Hunga Tonga- scientists have now figured out that isn’t so— it’s our GHG plus ENSO plus ??? Unknown but perhaps aerosol changes/decreases over ocean)
