August Tied as Earths Hottest Month on Recordhttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/scientists-say-august-was-earth-s-hottest-month-they-ve-measuredhttps://www.live-feeds.com/feed/scientists-say-august-was-earth-s-hottest-month-they-ve-measured#u66121Sat, 12 Sep 2026 10:36:58 +0000Global air temperatures last month averaged 62.53 degrees Fahrenheit, tying with July 2023 as the hottest month ever documented by the European Union climate service. This extreme heat blew past a key climate threshold due to a dangerous combination of factors. The ongoing global temperature anomalies match or break historic marks, driven by compounding thermal pressures that follow a protracted period of record ocean temperatures and a strengthening El Nino phenomenon.Why it mattersThe record-tying month continues a grim climate outlook as global temperatures face relentless upward pressure.
