Oceans hit record-high July temperatures

from dc · host Salai Dawtcemsang

The world's oceans hit their hottest ever recorded temperatures for July, partly fuelled by developing El Niño conditions in the Pacific, according to the EU's climate monitoring service Copernicus. The average sea surface temperature outside the world's polar regions was 20.96C last month, beating the previous high of 20.89C, set in 2023.

And Harry Potter fans force the rerouting of a multi-million dollar cable project to preserve the mock grave of the much-loved character.(Picture credit: Getty Images)
