Dubai International Airport 🇦🇪 has recorded nearly 160 mm (6.3 inches) of rain in the last 24 hours. For context, most of the Dubaï metro typically averages 3.5 inches per year. This is truly a historic event for the area.

NOAA's GOES-16 satellite is capturing the shadow of today's total solar eclipse as it traverses the continental United States. Truly a once in a lifetime event.

This is madness. Yesterday’s low temperature of +22.5°C (+72.5°F) in Biarritz was the highest minimum temperature ever recorded in France 🇫🇷 for the month of April. In fact, +22.5°C was one of the highest minimum temperatures ever measured at this station (for any month).

This is straight up ridiculous. On April 1, Austria’s capital Vienna experienced its earliest +28°C temperature since records began in 1872, beating the previous record by a whopping 20 days. Average first date is May 27.

We just observed the warmest March day on record in four European countries. Some of the previous monthly records were broken by large margins, up to 4°C in Belarus. This is mind-blowing.

Wow! Japan’s capital Tokyo just recorded its hottest March day on record with an incredible 28.1°C (+82.6°F), pulverizing previous monthly record by nearly 3°C. This is crazy level of heat for late March, more typical of early July. Observations here began in 1876.

Truly exceptional warmth is surging into large parts of Europe as we speak. +26.4°C in Poland today. It is still March. More records likely over the coming days as the heat moves northeast.

As crazy as it may sound, Global sea surface temperatures have now been at all-time record warm levels for an entire year. This is perhaps one of the most absurd and alarming graphs I have ever plotted.

I can’t believe I’m actually writing this. The North Atlantic sea surface temperature has been at record warm levels for an entire year now, setting daily record highs every day for 365 consecutive days and counting. Yes, you read that right.

Here's a wild stat: An astonishing 23% of the Contiguous U.S. was at least 5°F above normal for the entire Meteorological Winter 2023-2024. Only 1% was below normal.

Last month’s temperatures in Central Europe have been downright crazy. The Czech Republic observed its warmest February on record, with the nationwide average temperature a staggering 6°C above normal. The previous February record has been destroyed by 2 full degrees Celsius.
