High temperatures persist The image below, created with NASA data while using a 1903-1924 custom base, illustrates that the temperature anomaly through July 2024 has been above 1.5°C for the past 13 months. The red line shows the trend (one-year Lowess Smoothing) associated with the rapid recent rise. On August 8, 2024, the daily global air temperature…

Global temperature [ from earlier post ] The above image, from an earlier post, shows that the February 2024 temperature was 1.76°C above 1885-1915, potentially 2.75°C above pre-industrial (bright yellow inset right). The image was created by Sam Carana for Arctic-news.blogspot.com with an April 2024 data.giss.nasa.gov screenshot. The red line (6 months Lowess smoothing) highlights…

The above image shows a trend (magenta), based on NOAA August 2008 through June 2024 data (black) and added on a canvas that is 31.42-year wide. If this trend continues, the clouds tipping point could get crossed in early 2036 due to the rise in carbon dioxide (COâ‚‚) alone. [ from earlier post ] Rising COâ‚‚ emissions…

Water vapor feedback There are numerous self-amplifying feedbacks that accelerate the temperature rise. One of them is the water vapor feedback. Just the temperature rise itself will cause more water vapor to be in the atmosphere. [ from Moistening Atmosphere ] The February 2024 temperature was 1.76°C above 1885-1915, which could be as much as 2.75°C above…

Temperatures as high as 125°F or 51.67°C are forecast to hit California on July 6, 2024, as illustrated by the image below, adapted from Climate Reanalyzer by the University of Maine. On June 23, 2024, the temperature in the Northern Hemisphere was higher than it was last year at this time of year, as illustrated by…
