2026 is on track to be one of 4 warmest years on record, marked by exceptional global temperatures, melting ice, rising sea levels, and a very strong El Niño that will unleash more heat & extreme weather into 2027.
New WMO #StateOfClimate #COP31 Update
↪️ bit.ly/stateofclimateCOP31pr
At #COP31, co-Presidents @turkiyecop31 and Australia announced an unprecedented call to action to protect the global climate observing system, amid unanimous declarations of support to protect the observing system which protects us.

Gaps in the global climate observing system make it harder to track progress, monitor adaptation & provide early warnings.
At #COP31 w/ @UNFCCC, we explored how coordination, protecting observations & closing gaps can secure the observations we depend on.

I never make a key climate intervention without consulting with a group of scientists first, to make sure my remarks are informed by the latest scientific evidence.
I thank the climate scientists who shared their insights with me today, ahead of tomorrow's #COP31 Leaders' Summit.
Dialogue, consensus, and action—the @turkiyecop31 core principles—underpin a shared need for reliable, timely and authoritative climate information.
Join WMO in exploring the climate info services cycle: from reading the climate signal to taking action.

Many vulnerable countries still lack the data needed to prepare for increasingly extreme weather.
At the @turkiyecop31 @UNFCCC Pavilion, WMO’s Celeste Saulo will show how observations help understand the climate, anticipate risks & drive action.

Global observing systems face growing challenges, from funding uncertainty to infrastructure vulnerabilities & data gaps.
At #COP31, we’ll engage w/ @UNFCCC, GCOS & partners to strengthen coordination and mobilize long-term support.

We've entered a new age of climate extremes:
A supersized El Niño is colliding with a planet already superheated by climate change.
The latest @WMO report shows once again that leaders must get serious by cutting emissions faster, accelerating a just transition from fossil fuels & delivering the finance & protection vulnerable countries need.

Indicators help us understand how climate impacts lives, identify risks, enable early warnings and guide decisions that protects our future.
A special WMO Global #StateOfClimate report releases at @turkiyecop31 to provide the latest science on our changing climate.
Stay tuned.
A tsunami doesn’t have to be deadly. Early warnings and early action can protect people, save lives, and prevent a hazard from becoming a disaster.
From ocean buoys and satellites to alert sirens, observations must reach people in time for them to take action.
