This is quite eye-opening to me anyways... temperatures averaged over land areas so far this year are statistically tied for the warmest on record! Data from www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/lan...
Line graph time series of global land mean surface temperature anomalies for each January-May period from 1850 through 2025. There is a long-term increasing trend and large year-to-year variability. The mean surface temperature anomaly averaged for January-May 2025 was 2.05°C for global land areas. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1901-2000 climate baseline.
