The second hottest was the second hottest in May. The average temperature was worldwide at 15.79 degrees Celsius and therefore only 0.12 degrees under those of May 2024, said the record holder, the climate converter Copernicus in Bonn.
Accordingly, the temperature was 1.4 degrees above the estimated average of the period from 1850 to 1900.
Very dry in parts of northwest -Europe
Spring – March, April and May was also exceptionally dry in parts of Northwest and Central Europe. “The lowest precipitation and soil moisture values have been registered in parts of Northwest – Europe,” said it since at least 1979. The drought in Europe has led to the lowest spring flow since the start of such records in 1992.
The Copernicus climate wall service of the European Union (EU) regularly publishes data on the temperature on the earth’s surface, the sea blanket and precipitation. The findings are based on analyzes generated by the computer, in the billions of measurements of satellites, ships, planes and weather stations around the world. Frequently used data fell to 1950, some earlier data is also available.
