    I’m a little skeptical of these numbers. It’s the hottest day based on average temperatures across the globe, but surely the various readings they take for this have changed significantly over time. Like, the records can’t have gone back very far, as back then you’d be looking at a different measurement excluding some key areas.

    I don’t doubt it’s getting hotter, but this feels like a somewhat sensationalist headline.
