The temperature was slightly higher than the previous record of 17.08 degrees Celsius recorded on July 6 last year. However, according to Carlo Buontempo, director of the Copernicus service, it is possible that the beginning of this week could yet eclipse Sunday's record.
Last year the record was broken consecutively from July 3 through July 6. "When you have these peaks, they tend to cluster together," Buontempo said.

“What is remarkable is how different the temperature of the last 13 months is with respect to the previous records," he added.

Every month since June 2023 has now ranked as the planet's hottest since records began, compared with the corresponding month in previous years.

According to experts, 2024 could be the hottest year since measurements began.

"As a consequence of the increasing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, we are bound to see new records being broken in the next few months, in the next few years," Buontempo said.

In early July this year Copernicus announced that the average global temperature over the past 12 months was “the highest ever recorded” and was “1.64 degrees Celsius higher than the pre-industrial average of 1850-1900.” The European Climate Change Monitoring Service has been tracking global weather phenomena since 1940.
