PARIS – Average global temperatures at the start of June were the warmest the European Union’s climate monitoring unit has ever recorded for the period, trouncing previous records by a “substantial margin”, it said on Thursday.

“The world has just experienced its warmest early June on record, following a month of May that was less than 0.1 deg C cooler than the warmest May on record,” said Dr Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service . Copernicus recently announced that global oceans were warmer last month than in any other May on record.

According to the data, the daily global average temperature was at or above the 1.5 deg C threshold between June 7 and 11, reaching a maximum of 1.69 deg C above it on June 9.
