Supplement: State of Climate Services 2024 Supplement: Significant Weather & Climate Events 2024 The clear signs of human-induced climate change reached new heights in 2024, which was likely the first calendar year to be more than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial era, with a global mean near-surface temperature of 1.55 ± 0.13 °C above the 1850-1900 average.
WMO Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update (2025-2029)
The WMO Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update (2025–2029) projects that global temperatures are expected to continue at or near record levels in the next five years, increasing climate risks and impacts on societies, economies and sustainable development.
2024 State of Climate Services - wmo.int
The State of Climate Services report says that in 2024, one third of National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) provide climate services at an ‘essential’ level, and nearly one third at an ‘advanced’ or `full’ level. It says that countries in Asia and Africa, in particular, have made strides in boosting their capacity thanks to targeted adaptation funding. The report ...
Climate change - World Meteorological Organization
Climate change is the term used to describe changes in the state of the climate that can be identified by changes in the average and/or the variability of its properties and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer.
WMO issues new guidelines on evaluation of weather and climate extremes
Knowledge of weather and climate extremes is critically important, not only for climate science, but also for practical purposes. For example, when designing a building or a bridge, it is essential to know, based on past observations, how fast the wind speeds in a given geographical area could actually reach.
State of the Climate in Africa 2024 - wmo.int
The World Meteorological Organization’s latest State of the Climate in Africa 2024 report reveals that extreme weather and climate change are intensifying hunger, insecurity, and displacement across Africa, impacting every facet of socio-economic development. 2024 ranked as one of the warmest years on record, with unprecedented sea-surface temperatures and widespread marine heatwaves. The ...
