🌡️ Heatwaves are becoming more intense and frequent – but what causes extreme heat, and how do we monitor its impacts?

Our latest article explores the dynamics behind heatwaves, how the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) tracks them, and their effects on health, the environment and the economy.

Have you explored the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) Climate Pulse app?

The Climate Pulse app turns global surface air temperature and sea surface temperature data into intuitive daily, monthly and annual charts and maps in near-real time. Compare different years and regions, switch between absolute values and anomalies, and download or share tailored graphics and data in just a few clicks.

🌊 The daily global average sea surface temperature has reached its highest level on record.

On 22 August, data from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) show a global value of 21.1°C, exceeding the previous record of 21.09°C set in March 2024. This record is consistent with the continued long-term warming of the global ocean and the emergence of an extreme El Niño event in the tropical Pacific.

Why does this matter? A warmer ocean contributes to sea-level rise through thermal expansion, increases the likelihood and intensity of marine heatwaves, and is putting increasing pressure on marine ecosystems and the communities that depend on them.

August 2026 has brought a sharp rise in wildfire emissions. Large-scale fires in North America and Eurasia have transported smoke across the Northern Hemisphere, including the Arctic, while extreme fires in western Europe and increasing seasonal fires in Indonesia are affecting air quality.

A new analysis from CAMS uses the Global Fire Assimilation System (GFAS) dataset to track where fires are burning, how intense they are, and how smoke impacts air quality.

Recent record-breaking heatwaves in Europe and high temperatures during the 2026 FIFA World Cup highlight how extreme heat can affect public health and major sporting events.

The latest article in the EU Space Observer looks at how the Weather Replay App from turns data from ERA5 into an interactive “time machine,” enabling users to explore more than 80 years of historical weather, hour by hour, from 1940 to just a few days before the present, including events like the 2003 and 2026 European heatwaves, FIFA World Cup matches, Apollo 11 launch, and more.

Discover the latest climate data: read our July 2026 Climate Bulletin summary from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S).

Highlights:
🌡️ June–July 2026 was the hottest such period on record in western Europe, and July 2026 was the joint‑second warmest July globally, 1.47°C above the 1850–1900 pre‑industrial average.

🌊 Average sea surface temperature across the extra‑polar oceans (60°S–60°N) reached a July record of 20.96°C, partly linked to developing El Niño conditions.

🔥 Much of western and central Europe was much drier than average, with record‑low soil moisture and exceptionally low river flows contributing to intense wildfires.

🧊 July Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent were below the 1991–2020 average, ranking as the sixth‑lowest and fifth‑lowest July extents on record.

Swipe through key climate highlights from the month, including: the joint-second warmest July on record globally, the highest July sea surface temperatures across the extra‑polar oceans, a new record June–July average temperature for western Europe, and prolonged hot and dry conditions that left soils and river flows at exceptionally low levels in many parts of western and central Europe.
