Land Surface Temperature Anomaly (Global): November, 2025
Summary
The monthly LST analysis was based on the LST of November, 2025. A multi-year global monthly LST climatology was generated as a reference. Monthly daytime LST, monthly daytime LST climatology, monthly LST anomaly, monthly LST variability, and monthly LST variability climatology were shown. The LST of this month is summarized as follows:
- A strong warm event covered nearly half of Eurasia, with temperatures about 5.0 °C above normal, affecting over half a billion people. Another large warm zone appeared across most of North America except the U.S. Northeast, with temperatures roughly 4.0 °C above normal.
- Nine of the top ten warmer-than-normal countries were located in Central and South Asia. The colder-than-normal list included six countries from Africa, three from Asia, and one from South America, aligning with the three major global cold centers observed this month.
- In the United States, a dipole pressure pattern with low pressure in the east and high pressure in the west produced cold conditions in the Northeast and warmer conditions across the rest of the country.
- Europe was overall colder than average, with occasional localized warm periods. Australia’s earlier heat eased. Southern Africa turned colder, while the Horn of Africa experienced a warming trend.
- Antarctica showed minimal change overall. The western side warmed slightly, while the eastern side stayed well above normal, reaching about 4.6 °C above average.
