LATEST: For four days in a row, the planet reached its hottest day ever recorded as regions all over the world endure dangerous heat.
Visitors and tourists to the World War II Memorial seek relief from the hot weather in the memorial's fountain, July 3, 2023, in Washington, D.C.On Wednesday, the record was tied as global temperatures again reached 17.18 degrees Celsius. That record was broken on Thursday as global temperatures climbed to 17.23 degrees Celsius, or 63.01 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the NCEP.
The record was first set on Monday, when average global temperatures measured at 16.2 degrees Celsius, or 61.16 degrees Fahrenheit, but it only took one day to surpass that temperature.The heat blanketing much of Earth has been driven by El Niño in combination with the greenhouse gas emissions responsible for global warming, researchers say.
Those conditions may prompt even hotter temperatures over the next six weeks, according to Robert Rohde, a physicist and lead scientist at Berkeley Earth, a non-profit environmental data analysis group.Although the data only exists after 1979, this week's temperatures likely represent the record for long before global temperatures began to be recorded, Rhode said in a Twitter post on Wednesday.
