A record-setting European heatwave, wildfires across Canada and France, and a strong El Niño taking shape in the Pacific. This summer has produced a run of extreme, headline-making weather: the warmest June ever measured for the world’s oceans, a lethal heatwave across France, wildfires across Canada and Europe, and the early arrival of a powerful […]

June 2026 was the 2nd warmest June on record. El Niño is growing rapidly and is likely to reach record high intensity by the end of the year.

Berkeley Earth is pleased to announce the launch of Synthesis, a new platform connecting historical weather observations with bias-corrected climate model projections — bringing local, city-level climate history and future projections to more than 8,000 locations worldwide.

In March 2026, the Western U.S. heatwave generated a +11.5°F monthly anomaly, unprecedented in 170 years of instrumental observations and second only to the Dust Bowl in station-record breadth. In this Special Report, we examine the observational record, attribution, and the possible emergence of a more significant climate signal: evidence of increasing temperature variance that mean-shift models could systematically miss.

Berkeley Earth, a leading provider of open-access, high-resolution climate data, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Othersphere, a spatial economics platform focused on sustainable infrastructure siting, investment, and design. This collaboration integrates the newly released Berkeley Earth High-Resolution Surface Temperature  Dataset (BEST-HR) into Othersphere’s predictive modeling tools, enabling more accurate modeling of project […]

Berkeley Earth is dedicated to advancing the field of climate science by providing open-source, high-resolution datasets that enhance the understanding of local climate dynamics and risks. In keeping with this ethos, today we introduce our forthcoming Climate Model Synthesis project, which aims to address critical gaps in existing climate models by applying bias correction and […]
