Kuwait +53°C in June! World Climatic History is Rewritten and it´s only Beginning!

The global climate crisis has just entered uncharted territory, as Failaka Island in Kuwait has recorded a staggering 52.6°C, the earliest known maximum temperature in the region ever. Nearby Bubyan Island also scorched at 51.3°C, cementing this event as one of the most extraordinary heat episodes ever documented.

This heat isn’t isolated.

Across the region, Iran and Iraq have surpassed 50°C, while Qatar and Oman baked under 49°C. These figures represent not just broken records, but obliterated historical norms, rewriting what we thought was possible in June, especially in coastal and island regions.

Meteorologists and climatologists worldwide are calling this an “apocalyptic preview” of what’s expected in the coming week. With persistent heat domes, unrelenting high-pressure systems, and record sea surface temperatures, the Middle East is enduring a climatic shock that even the most seasoned experts find hard to believe.

Failaka Island’s 52.6°C now stands as a symbol of a planet rapidly overheating, and the broader implications are alarming:

• Urban infrastructure is buckling.
• Power grids are straining.
• Human health risks are skyrocketing.

This is no longer an abstract warning. It is real, happening now, and escalating fast. And according to forecasts, this might just be the beginning.

The climate has changed. Now, history is catching up.
