All of the five warmest Augusts on record have occurred since 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The heat also impacted Arctic sea ice coverage, which was 30 percent below average and the second-smallest for August on record, according to a monthly report from NOAA. For the Antarctic, the sea ice extent was the fifth-smallest for August on record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The data shows that global temperatures for the June-August period were the second-highest on record, and the highest on record for the Northern Hemisphere. Record-warm temperatures were recorded in parts of Alaska, Mexico, South America, western and southern Africa, Europe, and Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The heat was particularly extreme in parts of Europe, where all-time temperature records were broken in several countries.
