Most days in 2024 exceeded 1.5C warming!
This not only brings to mind the iconic cover of Joy Division's album "Unknown Pleasures" but also manages to scare the living daylight out of me.
The image shows a chart of daily global air temperature deviations from the pre-industrial average (1850–1900) from 1940 to 2024. Each wave represents a year's temperature distribution. - **X-axis:** Temperature deviations (-0.5°C to +2°C). - **Colors:** Blue indicates cooler days, red shows warmer days, with darker red for higher deviations. - **Trend:** Early years cluster near the pre-industrial average. From the 1980s onward, waves shift increasingly to the right, reflecting global warming. - **2024:** Most days exceeded +1.5°C, shown by a broad, dark red wave. The chart highlights the intensifying climate crisis. Data sources: ERA5, C3S/ECMWF; chart by BBC.
