ROME, 09 DEC – Globally, November 2021 has been estimated as the fifth hottest November on record. This was announced in a press release by Copernicus, the EU weather service. The global average temperature in November 2021 was almost 0.2ºC lower than in November 2020, a record month, but very close to the temperatures of the other warmer months of November: in 2015, 2016 and 2019. The temperature in Europe was overall close to the 1991-2020 average, for the entire autumn season, and therefore also for the month of November. Ireland, Great Britain and southern Scandinavia experienced autumn heat near record levels. Regions where temperatures were significantly above average for both November and the season include most of North America, especially northeastern Canada, much of Siberia, and most of Africa and the Middle East. . The month and the entire season were colder than average in the Far East of Russia and Alaska, and across much of Central Asia and Australia. (HANDLE).
