According to the Copernicus Observatory, the first month of the year was 0.79 ° C warmer than the average for January of the last 3 decades
The 1st month of 2025 was the hottest January ever recorded, according to data from (European Union). According to the numbers, the average temperature of planet Earth was 13.23 ° C. This milestone is 0.79 ° C warmer than the average for the month of the last 3 decades (from 1991 to 2020).
When considered the pre-industrial average (1850-1900), January 2025 was 1.75 ° C warmer. In addition, this was the 18th month in a period of 19 months when the average global temperature was 1.5 ° C above this average.
Already the average of February 2024 to January 2025 was 0.73 ° C above the average from 1991 to 2020 and 1.61 ° C above the estimated average of 1850 to 1900.
According to Samantha Burgess, strategic leader of the European Center for Medium -term weather forecasts, the result is “surprising”since the world is already coming out of the climate standard El Niño – heating – and entering La Niña – of cooling. With this, an attenuation of increased global temperatures was expected.
Regions of the world
In Europe, the average earth temperature in January was 1.80 ° C, milestone 2.51 ° C above the last 3 decades and the 2nd warmer temperature since January 2020.
