Under identical environmental conditions, «Red Savina» recorded a mean heat level of 248,556 SHU, which is 232 % below the highest heat level (577,000 SHU) published for this cultivar in the Guinness World Records.

Less lift means an aircraft can carry less weight, but it also means an airplane — especially a weighty one — needs a longer runway in hot weather, a restriction that can lead to flight delays or cancellations like those caused by record - breaking heat in Phoenix last month.

Because water expands as it warms, that heat also meant that sea surface heights were record high, measuring about 2.75 inches higher than at the beginning of the satellite altimeter record in 1993.

The record heat means that every year since 1997 has been warmer than average in the United States.

Several cities reached historic highs for heat, and January's average mean temperature (29.68 °C) surpassed records set more than 80 years ago, in January 1932.

While heat waves are a regular part of summer weather, the steady warming of the planet means those heat waves are getting ever hotter, making record heat more and more likely

Not sure if anyone else on the interwebs picked this up, but as far as i can tell these heat intrusions have already broken the record DMI deviation from mean temp set in the fall of 2016.

More than 95 % of the 5 yr running mean of the surface temperature change since 1850 can be replicated by an integration of the sunspot data (as a proxy for ocean heat content), departing from the average value over the period of the sunspot record (~ 40SSN), plus the superimposition of a ~ 60 yr sinusoid representing the observed oceanic oscillations.

I would suggest comparing peak to peak average temperature captures during weighted El - Nino events (during the time they occur, if they can be compared equally this would be a telling graph), instead of considering year to year records as a means of reducing ENSO effects on the temperature record, ENSO being largely a heat exchange between air and sea causing great changes in cloud distribution world wide.

This means there is an 80 % chance that current heat records are caused by humans.

But the Arctic sea ice has hit near - record minimums of sea ice since 2002, meaning the ocean is absorbing more sunlight, and heat, than it used to, leading to more ice melt.

[Please note the model shows a lot of Amazon heating, but little (annual mean) Amazon drying — which does not correspond well with findings from the Pleistocene climate record or present - day (2005, 2010 droughts) observations.

This suggests three levels of skepticism even in Muller's mind: a) global warming which in the context means the land temperature record (not the ocean heat as Pielke Sr would prefer) b) its human causes (where Judith Curry also parts company with Muller) and c) what can and should be done about b).

The record is part of a new study published in Geophysical Research Letters, and suggests that over geologic time changes, the mean position of the SPCZ could be a key regulator of the Indonesian Throughflow and the transfer of ocean heat out of the Pacific Ocean.

Record - breaking losses of Arctic sea ice mean that instead of being covered with reflective white ice, the darker ocean water is exposed and can store heat energy, reducing the temperature gradient and causing a feedback loop that ends up melting more ice.

However, the point I am making is that the efforts of the IPCC to define climate sensitivity will have no policy value if that which we measure (and the way in which we measure and calculate it) to achieve our records of global mean surface temperature is not in fact a true reflection of the heat energy at the surface.

Animals often desert their homes before their owners are aware of the dangers of the situation, meaning record heat waves, speedily spreading fires, floods, and hurricanes are creating legions of lost pets.

That means competition may heat up for the record low number of homes for sale.
