The latest edition in an annual series of global climate reports shows that Europe experienced its warmest year in 2020 by a considerable amount.

the wealth of evidence of sustained climate change with long-term trends and record or near-record values across our climate system is growing and it is becoming abundantly clear that these historically unusual values of water vapour, relative humidity, evaporation, soil moisture, drought, extreme

. • The climate of 2003, when the record June temperature was observed, represented by temperature anomalies in years 1993-2012 extracted from the ALL experiment. • the present climate, represented by the temperature anomalies in years 2013-2032 extracted from the ALL experiment. • the climate of the late

simulations start at year 1850. The likelihood of extreme heatwaves is calculated under four different climatic conditions: the natural climate, represented by all June temperature anomalies extracted from the NAT experiment. The climate of 2003, when the record June temperature was observed, represented
