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

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

Supported by: Fund Manager: Delivery Partners: 26 The introduction of additional historical data will provide more robust historical climate record

; Arndt et al. 2010). This implies that more moisture is available to form precipitation in extreme events and to provide additional energy to further intensify such events. About two-thirds of locations globally with long, climate-quality instrumental records [e.g., as compiled in the Hadley Centre

are often asked if they ‘believe’ in climate change. For those at the Met Office Hadley Centre who have studied climate records, the evidence that human activity is changing our climate is overwhelming. ‘Climate change and CO 2 are clearly linked. And, as a major CO 2 producer, humankind

-existing health conditions. With climate change making heatwaves more frequent and intense, knowing how to stay cool and safe is more important than ever. UK temperature records: A changing climate The UK has experienced increasingly extreme temperatures in recent years. On 19 July 2022, the UK recorded

is already evident in the observed record. This has widespread and significant impacts. Extreme heat events do occur within natural climate variation due to changes in global weather patterns. However, the increase in the frequency, duration, and intensity of these events over recent decades
