For the first time in recorded history, the average temperature for the world on a single day exceeded 62.6ºF, initial measurements show, making Monday, July 3, the hottest day on record.
Monday was the world's hottest day on record, exceeding an average of 62.6 degrees Fahrenheit for the first time, according to initial measurements taken on Tuesday by U.S. meteorologists.
That measurement surpasses the previous daily record of 62.456 degrees set on July 24 last year, according to data from NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Prediction going back to 1979. The record has yet to be corroborated by other measurements but could itself soon be broken as the Northern Hemisphere's summer unfolds.
Even last month, average global temperatures were the warmest the European Union's Copernicus climate monitoring unit had ever recorded for the start of June.
