NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have released their annual assessment of global temperatures for 2024, providing crucial in

NOAA and NASA said Friday that 2024 was the hottest year in recorded history, adding consensus to an earlier announcement by European scientists.

It’s official: 2024 was the planet’s warmest year on record, according to an analysis by scientists from NASA and NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI). Below are highlights from NOAA’s 2024 annual global climate report:

A coronal mass ejection earlier this week may pull the northern lights to more northern U.S. states, forecasters said.

"The change of seasons causes surface melting far inland from the coastal ice front," glaciologist Christopher Shuman said.

"Once again, the temperature record has been shattered — 2024 was the hottest year since record keeping began in 1880."

Earth's average surface temperature in 2024 was the warmest on record, according to an analysis led by NASA scientists.

Prolonged drought and powerful Santa Ana winds set up extreme conditions that have fueled the devastating wildfires in the Los Angeles area. Those conditions were compounded by climate change. According to NOAA and NASA,

San Diego scientists are collecting samples of ash from California's coast to measure how toxins and urban debris from the Los Angeles wildfires could affect nearby fisheries and the food webs of local ecosystems.

NOAA pegged 2024’s global average surface temperature at 1.46 degrees C above its preindustrial baseline, and NASA’s measurements put the increase at 1.47 degrees C. In 2023, NASA said the ...
