Monthly Temperature Patterns The year 2024 began with six months of continuous record high monthly-average temperatures. This is partly due to the El Niño event that peaked in late 2023. However high temperatures persisted well beyond the end of El Niño in June 2024. Similar warmth occurred in the second half on 2024, though only August set a new record as the other five months each ranked behind the records set in 2023. In 2024, our analysis placed every month at least 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) above the 1850-1900 average for that month.
