- Oceans absorb most of the heat from human-caused global warming and are currently at their hottest surface temperatures for early summer.
- New records between 20.86 and 21.0 degrees Celsius were recorded on June 21, 2026, exceeding previous highs from 2023 and 2024.
- The El Niño climate phenomenon amplifies this trend, contributing to droughts and floods mainly in the Southern Hemisphere.
- Elevated ocean temperatures increase atmospheric energy, heightening the chance of severe storms and heavy rainfall events.
The current conditions could be the beginning of a new phase that will lead us again into unfamiliar territory.— Copernicus Director Carlo Buontempo; he noted that the current conditions could herald the start of a new phase leading us into unfamiliar territory.
Ocean heat at its peak: At this time of year, the upper ocean layers are not usually as warm as they are now. Climate researchers warn of "uncharted territory"
