June 2025 highlights:

June 2025 was the third-warmest June globally, with an average ERA5 surface air temperature of 16.46°C, 0.47°C above the 1991-2020 average for June.

June 2025 was 1.30°C above the estimated 1850-1900 average used to define the pre-industrial level. It was only the third month in the last 24 with a global temperature less than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level.
 
The average temperature over European land for June 2025 was 18.46°C, 1.10°C above the 1991-2020 average for June, making the month the fifth-warmest June in the record.
 
The average sea surface temperature (SST) for June 2025 over 60°S–60°N was 20.72°C, the third-highest value on record for the month, 0.13°C below the June 2024 record.
 
Arctic sea ice extent was 6% below average, the second lowest monthly extent for June in the 47-year satellite record. During the latter part of the month, the daily extent was consistently the lowest for the time of year.
 
In June 2025, it was drier than average in western and southern Europe, as well as much of the UK and regions of southern Scandinavia, and parts of western Russia.

Heißester jemals gemessener Juni in Westeuropa

Zwei Hitzewellen sorgten im vergangenen Monat für außergewöhnlich hohe Temperaturen. Und machten den Juni 2025 zum heißesten in Westeuropa seit Beginn der Wetteraufzeichnungen. Von Hitzewellen war auch das Meer betroffen.

Once, Earth stood still.
Then came the Renaissance — and it started moving.

This wasn’t just a change in science. It was a change in how we understood ourselves.

#Switzerland’s ebbing #glaciers show a new, strange phenomenon: holes reminiscent of Swiss cheese

The European Union’s #Copernicus climate center said last month was the second-warmest May on record worldwide, although temperatures in Europe were below the running average for that month compared to the average from 1991 to 2020.

Excerpt: " 'This is a situation we are seeing more and more often on our glaciers: That the ice is just not dynamic anymore,' he said. 'It’s just resting there and melting down in place.'

"This lack of dynamic regeneration is the most likely process behind the emergence and persistence of holes, seemingly caused by water turbulence at the bottom of the glacier or air flows through the gaps that appear inside the blocks of ice, Huss said.

" 'First the holes appear in the middle, and then they grow and grow, and suddenly the roof of these holes is starting to #collapse,' he said. 'Then these holes get visible from the surface. These holes weren’t known so well a few years ago, but now we are seeing them more often.'

"Such an affected glacier, he said, 'is a Swiss cheese that is getting more holes everywhere, and these holes are collapsing — and it’s not good for the glacier.' "
