Here is a fascinating list of places that have recently set a new temperature record. On this list, 92% or the decade's record-setting temperatures were new Highs, and only 8% were new Lows.
I'am curious abour global warming but don't find what i want. Does somebody have a map who show in a short futur what will be the temperature or how it will change?
Unfortunately, yes. Summers are becoming considerably hotter (2010 was the hottest summer in the city), and winters are also becoming warmer (some of warmest winter months in my city were registered after 2000). Not that I want winters to be extraordinarily brutal, I just want mild, not hot summers, and cold and snowy winters with stable snowpack.
Last week, we experienced temperatures of about 30ºC at night. Impossible to sleep. Although the weather is often warm in SP, reaching 30ºC even during the daytime is very rare, and at night the temperature surrounds 20ºC in the hottest days. On the other hand, August is a month which in past decades was usually cold and rainy, but nowadays it's often hot and very, very dry.
"Over the past 166 years, the average temperature in Finland has risen by more than two degrees. During the observation period, the average increase was 0.14 degrees per decade, which is nearly twice as much as the global average
According to a recent University of Eastern Finland and Finnish Meteorological Institute study, the rise in the temperature has been especially fast over the past 40 years, with the temperature rising by more than 0.2 degrees per decade. "The biggest temperature rise has coincided with November, December and January.
Temperatures have also risen faster than the annual average in the spring months, i.e., March, April and May. In the summer months, however, the temperature rise has not been as significant"
Apparently so. 2011 was the second warmest year on record in the UK, 2014 became the warmest ever. July 2006 was the warmest month in recorded history.
The warmth is mostly due to milder winters and autumns, it would appear. 2011 had the warmest autumn ever, but summer was still cool and rainy.
California is definitely becoming warmer and drier. San Francisco didn't get any rain this January for the first time since records have been kept. I should say, in that area, rainfall has become more erratic as SF received a huge amount of rain in December. It's definitely warmer, especially in winter now but also in summer. San Diego seems to get more humid and tropical each summer. In San Diego, there actually seems to be more extremes with hotter summers and colder winters. Some areas around the city got snow a week after Christmas.
