The
TempLS FEM anomaly (1961-90 base) was 1.059°C in June, up from 1.029°C in May. It was the warmest June in the record, ahead of 0.95°C in 2023. The
NCEP/NCAR reanalysis base index fell by 0.013°C.
That makes 13 record months in a row; and June 2024 is even close to July 2023, so it may not be the last of this run. It is looking even more likely that 2024 will be a record warm year, well ahead even of 2023.

As always, the
3D globe map gives better detail. There are more graphs and a station map in the
ongoing report which is updated daily.
