Antarctica Just Hit 65 Degree Farenheit, Its Warmest Temperature Ever Recorded! by Benfaco: 11:07am On Feb 09, 2020 |
Just days after the Earth saw its warmest January on record, Antarctica has broken its warmest temperature ever recorded. A reading of 65 degrees was taken Thursday at Esperanza Base along Antarctica’s Trinity Peninsula, making it the ordinarily frigid continent’s highest measured temperature in history. The balmy reading beats out the previous record of 63.5 degrees, which occurred March 24, 2015. It’s been an eventful year for climate extremes, and we’re only on Day 38 of 2020. January was the warmest on record globally, according to atmospheric monitoring group Copernicus, with records shattered in Europe and Asia. A number of locales in Eastern Europe and particularly Russia wound up more than 12 to 13 degrees above average. ‘The warmth is really unheard of’: Europe just posted its warmest January on record “[This record] doesn’t come as any surprise,” wrote Eric Steig, a glaciologist studying climate change at the University of Washington. “Although there is decade-to-decade variability, the underlying trend across most of the continent is warming." He says this record will probably be broken again in the not-so-distant future. https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/02/07/antarctica-just-hit-65-degrees-its-warmest-temperature-ever-recorded/?outputType=amp
