August 2024 was the warmest ever recorded globally (tied with August 2023) with an average temperature of 16.82 degrees Celsius, 0.71 degrees above the 1991-2020 average for that month.
The global average temperature anomaly this year (January-August 2024) is 0.70 degrees Celsius above the 1991-2020 average, according to the new monthly bulletin from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). which is the highest figure for this period and 0.23 degrees Celsius warmer than the same period in 2023.
Average anomaly In the remaining months of this year it should decrease by at least 0.30 °C. so 2024 will not be warmer than 2023. This has never happened in the entire data set, so Copernicus says it is increasingly likely that 2024 will be the warmest year on record.
August 2024 was 1.51°C above the pre-industrial level, the 13th month in a 14-month period in which the globally averaged surface air temperature was 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level. The average global temperature over the past 12 months (September 2023 – August 2024) is the highest on record for any 12-month period, 0.76°C above the 1991–2020 average and 1.64°C above the 1850–1900 pre-industrial average. These values are identical to those in the previous two 12-month periods ending in June and July 2024.

In the equatorial Pacific, temperatures were below average, indicating the development of La Niña, but In many regions, surface temperatures across all oceans remained unusually warm.
According to Samantha Burgess, Deputy Director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), “During the last three months of 2024, the planet experienced its hottest June and August, its hottest day on record, and its hottest Arctic summer on record. This streak of record temperatures increases the likelihood that 2024 will be the hottest year on record. Extreme events associated with The temperatures we have witnessed this summer will only get worse, with even more devastating consequences for people and the planet. unless we take urgent action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”
