Reuters Climate Monitor: Real-time global temperature anomaly tracker
By
Ben Welsh
Summary
The Reuters Climate Monitor is a real-time tool that visualizes temperature anomalies across the globe by comparing current conditions to historical averages. It uses hourly temperature data from the ERA5 reanalysis dataset (1961-1990 baseline) across roughly one million grid squares covering Earth's surface. The tool shows where temperatures are unusually hot or cold compared to what was typical in the past.

· 3 pulledThe Reuters Climate Monitor shows where temperatures are unusually hot or cold in real time by comparing today's conditions with what was typical in the past.
Using hourly temperature records from the ERA5 reanalysis dataset published by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts' Copernicus program, we calculate the typical temperatures for each of roughly one million grid squares covering the Earth's surface for each day of the calendar year.
The normal values are drawn from a 30-year window spanning 1961 to 1990, a standard reference period for climate analysis.
