When a heatwave hits the British Isles, we're rarely prepared. Our homes are designed to trap warmth, not keep it out. So, when it’s impossible to sleep — what can we actually do to keep cool?

Our climate is shifting faster than ever, with record-breaking temperatures, melting glaciers, rising sea levels and extreme weather events becoming the new normal. The WMO’s State of the Global Climate 2024 report paints a sobering picture of our planet.

2024 was the hottest year ever recorded, with Earth’s average temperature going beyond the 1.5°C warming level for the first time. A rise of 1.5 degrees might not sound like much, so why is this such a big deal?

Strong Santa Ana winds fanned devastating wildfires in January 2025. ABC10 Chief Meteorologist Monica Woods talked to atmospheric scientist Dr Neil Lareau to find out more.

2024 is on track to be the warmest year on record and the first year above the critical global warming threshold of 1.5°C. That makes the COP29 climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan, more crucial than ever.

Each year, 21 June marks #ShowYourStripes day. Meteorologists and scientists around the world share the warming stripes to start conversations about climate change. But 2023’s extreme heat required a whole new colour.

The stage is set for what could be the most active Atlantic hurricane season in recorded history. Allison Chinchar explains what is behind the record-breaking predictions.

As the fastest warming continent, it comes as no surprise that Europe’s climate is rapidly changing. Millions of people were affected by extreme weather events in 2023, from widespread flooding to severe heatwaves and the largest wildfire ever recorded.

The theme for 2024's World Meteorological Day is "At the frontline of climate action" – very apt following the State of the Global Climate report.
