The Dept of Commerce/NOAA has updated its NOAATEMP data series to the
end of Jun 2021.

A slew of records fell in the month, mostly related to the N Hem. But
global land temps also averaged +1.1C relative to the baseline
(roughly 1980s avgs) scoring another new record.

The warmest region was NoPo land (as usual) with temps almost 1.8C
above normal. But competition there is so tough that seemingly YUGE
value only scored a 3rd place.

In the JAN-JUN year-to-date stakes land in the N Temp Zone averaged
almost 1.3C above the baseline, but there are 5 previous years that
averaged higher.


The full list of regional temps are as follows:
