donsutherland1 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 CNN reported: Siberia's prolonged period of unusually warm weather is an "alarming sign," according to climate change scientists. Surface temperatures in Siberia were up to 10 degrees Celsius (18 degrees Fahrenheit) higher than average last month, making it the vast Russian region's hottest May since records began in 1979, according to research by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), a program affiliated with the European Commission. Siberia's warmer weather came as the world experienced its hottest May on record, the C3S findings show. According to climate scientist Martin Stendel, the temperature deviation in northwestern Siberia last month would happen only once in 100,000 years if it weren't for climate change. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/18/europe/siberia-warming-climate-crisis-intl-hnk/index.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
