Abstract

2023 was the hottest year on record, a year that broke many climate records. Canada’s forests started to burn in March, and continued to burn until June. China experienced unprecedented flooding, with over a week of consecutive heavy rainfall. In India, the southwest monsoon arrived late, leaving many parched parts of the country reeling from heatwaves. In June, our neighbouring state of Andhra Pradesh broke another local record, with the highest number of successive days of heatwave ever documented.
