At a Glance:
May 2018 was the hottest in 124 years of May records across the Lower 48.
Eight states broke warmth records and no state was colder than average.
Two states had their wettest Mays.
May 2018 was the hottest of any May in 124 years of recording keeping for the continental United States, eclipsing the extreme heat of that month in the 1930s during the Dust Bowl era.
The average temperature for the Lower 48 states last month was 65.41 degrees Fahrenheit, 5.21 degrees Fahrenheit above the 1901-2000 average, according to the state of the climate report released by NOAA on Wednesday.
That knocked out May 1934 for the warmest May on record. Rounding out the top five warmest Mays are 1936, 2012 and 2000.

Warmer than usual here in Japan , too .
Yeah thank goodness! Hopefully that ice age will wait at least a few hundred years before it gets here!
It will happen every year as long as Trump is President, then it will stop if a Democrat succeeds him.
I remember just back in April they said it when that month had been one of the coldest in history. It felt like we went from winter to summer is a single week.
First of all the Weather Channel is the biggest shill of anthropomorphic global warming BS out there, next to AlGore of course. And secondly, on record, really? the record isn’t even a pimple on the Earths ass when it come to geological and meteorological records. 124 years, yeah that’s gonna be definitive!
May has been one of the rainiest and coolest in my memory. I live north of New York City. Fake data. I don’t believe it. Terrible month. Send it back. And it’s continuing now into June.
For whatever it's worth.
funny- they didn’t report on April, march, February etc- guess those months were all ‘colder than past records”?
Yep. May was quite hot in Virginia.
How many people died of this sickening heat wave?
Meanwhile, how many crops and vegetables thrived, multiplied and rejoiced for the reasonable climate?
Oh, and was there any portion of the world colder than usual???
Sorry for the narrative busting questions...
Yup, even the weather is political. But then again, it’s always been like that.
Unless you give me virgins, the weather will remain bad...And only virgins go into the Volcano.... but I the King of the empire, I have a plan on saving some of these virgins...
Sex lies and weather forecasts...
Okay here we go again.... “The Global Warming” lie...
I want to see the Data the actual data that backs up this claim.
My B.S. radar is going off.
Boom!
Exactly!
Of course. God put us on this earth and the earth does its thing. if you don’t like your environment— MOVE!!
Sounds like they got creative again with the thermometer placement.
BullS**T..I had my heat on here, in New Jersey, for 1/2 the month!
Bullcrap! I know in Maryland it has been cool most days. And certainly wet!
LOL. Yeah I think you’re right.
Here in Placerville it has been in the 80s. That is low for this time of year. This is all crap from the Climate morons.
Where did they take these measurements 124 years ago, and where do they take them now?
