Global temperatures in 2020 are on pace for one of the planet's top two warmest years in 141 years of temperature records, according to separate new analyses. NOAA's State of the Climate report released Monday found that temperatures in the first six months of 2020 were second warmest of any January-June period, trailing only 2016 in records dating to 1880. Based on this data, NOAA calculated a 36% chance 2020 will end up as the record warmest . What's impressive about the warm start to 2020 is the lack of warmth provided by an El Niño. A record-tying strong El Niño lasted through roughly the first half of 2016, giving a boost to global temperatures. weather.com/...

The year 2020 is almost certain to rank among the five warmest years on record,” NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) said in its monthly global climate report. 2019 was the second warmest year since record-keeping began in 1880, and the 2010s were by far the warmest decade. 2020 on Track to Rank in the Top 5 Hottest Years on Record - Scientific American

A La Niña watch has been issued by @NWSCPC with a 50-55% chance of La Niña developing by the fall and lasting through winter. Find out more details about what this means in the latest #ENSO blog. #LaNiñahttps://t.co/KMO06Ad56s pic.twitter.com/wBRZwqLjNW— NOAA Climate.gov (@NOAAClimate) July 9, 2020
