Farther south and west, most areas from the Rockies to the Gulf and Atlantic coasts can expect above-average temperatures, regardless of the amount of sunshine. Areas most likely to have several hours of sunshine will be the mid-Atlantic, Great Lakes and Plains states, as well as the Florida Peninsula. A storm will spread clouds and rain from coastal Texas and Louisiana to parts of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. Gusty storms will occur near the Gulf Coast.

Two U.S. agencies and in- ternational weather groups reported Wednesday that last year was the warm- est on record. They mea- sure global temperatures in slightly different ways, and came up with a range of in- creases, from minuscule to what top American climate scientists described as sub- stantial. They're "all singing the same song even if they are hitting different notes along the way. The pattern is very clear," said Deke Arndt of the National Oce- anic and Atmospheric Ad- ministration. NOAA calculated that the average global temper- ature for 2016 was 58.69 degrees (14.84 degrees Cel- sius) — beating the previ- ous year by 0.07 degrees (0.04 Celsius). NASA's figures , which include more of the Arctic, are higher at 0.22 degrees (0.12 Celsius) warmer than 2015. The Arctic "was enor- mously warm, like totally off the charts compared to everything else," said Gavin Schmidt, director of NASA's Goddard Institute of Space Studies in New York, where the space agency monitors global temperatures. The British meteoro- logical office determined that 2016 barely beat 2015 by 0.018 degrees (0.01 Cel- sius). The World Meteoro- logical Organization and other monitoring groups agreed that 2016 was a re- cord, with the international weather agency chief Pet- teri Taalas saying "temper- atures only tell part of the story" of extreme warming. The figures are based on ground-level tempera- tures. Satellite calculations also showed that it was the warmest year, Schmidt said. "This is clearly a re- cord," he said. "We are now no longer only looking at something that only scien- tists can see, but is appar- ent to people in our daily lives." Temperature records go back to 1880. This is the fifth time in a dozen years that the globe has set a new annual heat record. Re- cords have been set in 2016, 2015, 2014, 2010 and 2005. Arndt said the 0.07 dif- ference for 2016 is actually one of the largest NOAA has seen between record years. What's more impor- tant than any single record is the multi-decade "clear warming trend since the late 20th Century," said Arndt, NOAA's climate monitoring chief. Schmidt said his calcula- tions show most of the re- cord heat was from heat- trapping gases from the burning of oil, coal and gas. Only about 12 percent was due to El Nino, which is a periodic warming of parts of the Pacific that change weather globally, he said. Arndt put the El Nino fac- tor closer to a quarter or a third. El Nino disappeared last June. Even without it, Schmidt said this year probably won't break any records although it should be in the top five warmest. NOAA calculated that last year was the warm- est year on record in the oceans, the Arctic and North America. The aver- age amount of ice in the Arctic Ocean reached a re- cord low for 2016, Arndt said. According to NOAA, 2016 was 1.69 degrees (0.94 degrees Celsius) warmer than the 20th Century aver- age. The first eight months of 2016 all broke heat re- cords. NASA has last year at 1.78 degrees (0.99 de- grees Celsius) warmer than their mid-20th Century av- erage and about 2 degrees warmer than the start of the industrial age in the late 19th Century.
