Weather Bee | Will July warming fall below the 1.5°C level?
Hindustan TimesAbhishek Jha, HT’s assistant editor-data, analyses one big weather trend in the context of the ongoing climate crisis every week, using weather data from ground and satellite observations spanning decades. Some gradual cooling in global temperatures was expected this year since the warming in the Nino 3.4 region of the Pacific Ocean — used to track El Nino and La Nina events — was decreasing every month after December. This trend continuing in individual months beyond January meant that the 12-month running average continued to cross the 1.5°C threshold. At least three datasets tracking global temperatures had breached the 1.5°C threshold in the 12-month running average by February. {{^userSubscribed}} {{/userSubscribed}} {{^userSubscribed}} {{/userSubscribed}} June was the 12th consecutive month when global temperature was warmer by 1.5°C or more from the pre-industrial average in at least one dataset that tracks global average temperature.
