Looking Back at February 2024 Weather for the U.S. and the World – Posted on March 16, 2024
Much of the information in this report comes from the monthly emails I receive from John Bateman. He does public outreach for NOAA and in particular NCEI. I could find the same information and more on the NCEI website but John Bateman produces a good summary so I use it or most of it. I also add additional information from NCEI or other NOAA websites. At the end of the article, I provide two links that will get you to the full reports and much additional information.
I start with the trends of February Temperature looking at first CONUS, then all of North America and then the World both land and water.
| This is the temperature trend for CONUS. There was a decrease for February in 2024 as compared to February in 2023. I show all the data for February starting with 1895. |
| This is the temperature trend for North America. It covers a larger geographical area but I find it easier to read. |
| The temperature for the world, land and water hit a new record. |
