With the tally of global temperatures complete, last month ranked as the fifth hottest March of the past 143 years. Meanwhile, Arctic temperatures soared far above average.

Across the equatorial Pacific Ocean, the cooling influence of La Niña continues to dominate. As a result, global temperatures have been on the more moderate side so far in 2022, with each month ranking at least in the top 10 hottest in the record books.  

March 2022 continued that trend, with the major climate agencies - NASA , NOAA , the Japanese Meteorological Agency , and Europe's Copernicus Climate Change Service - ranking it as the 5th warmest month of March since 1880.     

By comparison, the relative heat across the Arctic is remarkable.

According to NASA , the globe was, on average, just over 1 ° C warmer than average during the month of March. However, temperature anomalies across the Arctic Circle were among the highest seen across the entire planet, soaring to nearly 7 ° C warmer than normal for the month.
