2020 has been the hottest month in Europe, according to records

  • September 2020 has been ranked as one of the hottest five September in history in the world and as far as Europe is concerned it has been the hottest of records.

07 October 2020 - 09:22

The data for September of this year have slipped into September of last year, which was the first. In addition to the negative record in Europe, higher than average temperatures have been recorded in Siberia, western Australia, the Middle East and South America.

The Climate Change Service, Copernicus, has reported this data in an intergovernmental agency sponsored by the European Union (EU). High temperature data is added to the nine-month forest fires and the strongest hurricane season since 2005. In relation to these phenomena, at the end of June it was reported that the Arctic sea ice was at lower levels than ever before and, according to many experts, by 2050 it could all be melted.

The Copernicus study reveals that last month it was 0.63 degrees Celsius hotter than the average, while in 2019 it rose to 0.05 degrees Celsius above the average.

The U.S. National Administrative Agency for Oceans and Atmospheres (NOAA) also publishes monthly global temperature assessments, one week after Copernicus measurements for so general.Ambas entities calculate the averages differently, but the results tend to be similar. NOAA is based on measurements of surface temperature of ground stations, vessels and buoys. Copernicus relies heavily on other computer models.

The Copernicus centre has collected September data on this map.
