The European Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) explains the fact that the measurements they have indicate that July 2019 was the hottest month on record. Independent analysis by NASA and NOAA will be public in the coming weeks.
Independent of the fact that most likely this new temperature record will be beaten again in the near future, what's most relevant is the temperature pattern: the last 5 months have also been the hottest compared to previous years, so everything indicates that 2019 will be again the hottest year ever recorded. The last 5 years have also been the hottest ever recorded says the New York Times.
