Scientists have determined that August was the hottest month ever measured. The high temperatures were caused by human-caused climate change and a strong El Nino. This combination led to the globe exceeding a key climate threshold.
The world averaged 62.53 degrees Fahrenheit in August, which is slightly higher than the previous record. However, due to the uncertainty level, it is considered a tie with the previous record set in July 2023.
Further information on this record-breaking month is available, including details on the impact of the high temperatures on the globe and the United States.
