With many places seeing temperatures near 100 degrees Fahrenheit , the new average temperatures might not seem very hot. But Tuesday’s global high was nearly 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the 1979-2000 average, which already tops the 20th- and 19th-century averages. The highs come after months of “truly unreal meteorology and climate stats for the year,” such as off-the-chart record warmth in the North Atlantic, record low sea ice in Antarctica and a rapidly strengthening El Nino, said University of Oklahoma meteorology professor Jason Furtado.
