Depending on how warm it stays throughout the month of December, 2020 could go down as the hottest year on record!
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration calculated Monday that last month globally was the second hottest November on record, right behind 2015. Yet NASA said it was the hottest November on record. NASA has coverage over the poles that NOAA does not — and both the Arctic and Antarctic were very warm in November, according to Local 10.
NASA says that 2020 is the warmest on record so far and will likely stay that way. NASA and NOAA records go waaaaaaay back to 1880. The reason it's so warm? They say its due to emissions from the burning of coal, oil and natural gas.
