    July also represents the first time in a year that a month had been less than 1.5° C above preindustrial temperatures

    Phew. Dodged that one. So it’s not so serious after all. /s

    Whew, dodged a bullet! I guess we’re good to go back to normal then. Climate change is just a myth, no need to fix anything./s

    Still hotter than all but 2023 and by a considerable margin. Maybe we are stabilizing at a new normal, but more likely it was a just a little bit of variation on our hockey stick.

    The graph clearly shows that the second half of July was hotter than in 2023 so the next string of record hot months had already begun when they wrote the article. Ridiculous.
