France had its third-warmest June since national records began in 1900.A heat wave affected the Peninsula and Balearic Islands during June 11–18 and, according to Spain's Agencia Estatal de Meteorología, this was the earliest heat wave, equaling records set back in June 1981. Only Junes of 2003, 2005, and 2017 were warmer. Spain's June 2022 temperature was 2.0☌ (3.6☏) above the 1981–2010 average, which is the fourth-highest for June since national records began in 1961.According to Meteorologisk Institute, 44 stations across Norway set their highest June temperature on record. Norway had its tenth-warmest June on record at 1.7☌ (3.1☏) above average.The extreme heat that was present across much of Asia and Europe throughout the month resulted in both continents having their second-warmest June on record, trailing closely behind their respective record-warm Junes of 20. According to the World Meteorological Organization, minimum temperatures across Scandinavia were above 30.0☌ (86.0☏). Minimum (nighttime) temperatures were also unusually warm, not allowing any respite since some locations remained above 25.0☌ (77.0☏). This also marked the first time Japan had a maximum temperature of 40.0☌ (104.0☏) in June and was only 1.0☌ (1.8☏) cooler than the all-time record of 41.1☌ (106.0☏). The city of Isesaki, which is located in Japan's Gunma prefecture, had a maximum temperature of 40.1☌ (104.2☏) on Ja new national maximum temperature record for June. Several locations across Europe, northern Africa, and the Middle East experienced daily maximum (daytime) temperatures over 35.0☌ (95.0☏), with some locations reaching 50.0☌ (122.0☏) during the first week of the month. The month of June started off with very warm temperatures across much of the Northern Hemisphere. Meanwhile, the Southern Hemisphere's June surface temperature departure of +0.62☌ (+1.12☏) tied with 2009, 2014, and 2018 as the seventh-highest on record. However, the land portion of the Northern Hemisphere had a near-record warm June with a temperature departure of +1.56☌ (+2.81☏), which is 0.14☌ (0.25☏) shy of tying the record set only last year (2021). The Northern Hemisphere, as a whole, had its fifth-warmest June on record. The month of June marks the beginning of the meteorological summer for the Northern Hemisphere and winter for the Southern Hemisphere. June 2022 Blended Land and Sea Surface Temperature Percentiles However, during June 2022, there were no areas with record-cold June temperatures. Meanwhile, near- to cooler-than-average temperatures were observed across parts of western and southern South America, south-central, central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean, the northern Atlantic Ocean, as well as small regions in western Russia, southern Africa and eastern Australia. This was the highest percentage for June since records began in 1951, surpassing the previous record set in 2010 (7.37%). This encompassed about 7.68% of the globe's land and ocean surfaces with a record high June temperature. Record-warm June temperatures were present across parts of China, the northern, western, and southeastern Pacific Ocean, as well as across small areas in the Middle East and northern Africa. June 2022 was characterized by much-above-average temperatures across parts of North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and across parts of the northern, western, and southwestern Pacific Ocean, as well as parts of the Atlantic and eastern Indian oceans. June 2022 also marked the 46th consecutive June and the 450th consecutive month with temperatures, at least nominally, above the 20th-century average. The ten warmest Junes have all occurred since 2010. This month was also 0.08☌ (0.14☏) cooler than the warmest June on record set in 2019. The global surface temperature for June 2022 was the sixth-highest in the 143-year record at 0.87☌ (1.57☏) above the 20th century average. The most current reconstruction analysis is always considered the most representative and precise of the climate system, and it is publicly available through Climate at a Glance. These factors, together, mean that calculations from the past may be superseded by the most recent data and can affect the numbers reported in the monthly climate reports. Based on those new calculations, the new historical data can bring about updates to previously reported values. NOAAGlobalTempv5 is a reconstructed dataset, meaning that the entire period of record is recalculated each month with new data. The major dataset, NOAAGlobalTemp version 5, updated in mid-2019, uses comprehensive data collections of increased global area coverage over both land and ocean surfaces. NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information calculates the global temperature anomaly every month based on preliminary data generated from authoritative datasets of temperature observations from around the globe.
