🚨🌍🌡📈 Using a 15-year trend, we have now officially passed 1.5°C of global warming. All recent La Niña months are above the trendline. Extrapolating this linear trend, we'll hit +1.75°C by 2031 and +2.0°C by 2037. ⬇️

With the June data now in, the Loess-15-year trend didn't make it to 1.5C (Currently at 1.486C for ERA5 data). Another reminder for me to stay away from any predictions (other than playing with predictions / projections made by professionals). The loess-30-year trend currently sits at 1.422C

Other lines of evidence support a strong increased rate of warming over the past decades. Without this, I wouldn't make strong strong statements on surface air temperature trends.

I wouldn't call the start of this a through. It's at the center of the trend at the time. And how much of a peak the end is is quite uncertain. ENSO was neutral/negative, solar cycle 25 peaked.
