Global map showing surface air temperature anomalies for January 2026. Most all areas are warmer than average, except for parts of Eurasia. Anomalies are calculated in reference to a 1951-1980 climate baseline using GISTEMPv4.
The spatial extent and magnitude of the cold departures last month is much smaller the extent of relative warmth globally. For instance, check out the northeastern U.S.
