An El Nino is a temporary natural warming of parts of the central Pacific Ocean that changes weather worldwide and generally makes the planet hotter. In addition, this preliminary record for the hottest day is based on data that only goes back to 1979, the start of satellite record-keeping, whereas NOAA’s data goes back to 1880.īut Arndt added that we wouldn't be seeing anywhere near record-warm days unless we were in “a warm piece of what will likely be a very warm era" driven by greenhouse gas emissions and the onset of a “robust” El Nino.

Scientists generally use much longer measurements - months, years, decades - to track the Earth's warming. 177 (BP1764S, BP1764W) Owners Manual View / Download Marauder Air Rifle. “In the climate assessment community, I don’t think we’d assign the kind of gravitas to a single day observation as we would a month or a year,’’ Arndt said. It legitimately captures global-scale heating and NOAA will take these figures into consideration when it does its official record calculations, said Deke Arndt, director of the National Center for Environmental Information, a division of NOAA. But it is an indication that climate change is reaching into uncharted territory. This global record is preliminary, pending approval from gold-standard climate measurement entities like the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association.
