The Version 6.1 global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for October 2025 was +0.53 deg. C departure from the 1991-2020 mean, unchanged from the September 2025 value.
The Version 6.1 global area-averaged linear temperature trend (January 1979 through October 2025) remains at +0.16 deg/ C/decade (+0.22 C/decade over land, +0.13 C/decade over oceans).
The following table lists various regional Version 6.1 LT departures from the 30-year (1991-2020) average for the last 22 months (record highs are in red).
