The Modern Warming: Climate Tracker
The earth's temperature has risen by 1.22 °C since the preindustrial era (1850-1900), as revealed by cutting-edge HadCRUT5 weather station data and the UAH satellite series. Since 1979, when satellite technology unveiled a new era of climate observation, we've seen a steady warming trend of 1.56 °C per century. Projecting this trajectory to 2100, our planet could face a daunting 2.4 °C increase from preindustrial levels.
The latest monthly anomaly is 1.40 °C, as of 2025/10 update in the UAH series.
The El Nino years 1998, 2016 and 2023 present themselves as high spikes but the current one literally went off the chart and we had to adjust the scales.
