2015 Still Running Away with Record Heat

  • Published: December 17th, 2015

NOAA’s November global temperature numbers have been released, and 2015 is still on track to be the hottest year on record — by far. It was the hottest November on record, wrapping up the hottest fall on record. That comes in the same year where we had the hottest spring and summer ever recorded. This is the 7th consecutive month to break the global average temperature record, while 9 of the 11 months so far this year are also record warm for their respective months.

The full NOAA report can be found here.
