2023 was the northern hemisphere’s hottest summer in 2,000 years

“Looking back at the past 2,000 years, the team searched for the warmest summers on record to see how they compared to 2023. They found that the hottest June to August in the pre-industrial era was in 246 CE when temperatures were around 0.88⁰C above average.

This record stood for over 1,000 years, before being broken repeatedly since the late 1990s.”
