Observed surface temperatures have generally increased by about 1 °C in Africa since the late 19th century to the early 21st century. [11] In the Sahel, the increase has been as much as 3 °C for the minimum temperature at the end of the dry season. [11] Data for temperature and rainfall shows discrepancies from the norm, both in timing and ...

For example, changes in SST monitored via satellite have been used to document the progression of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation since the 1970s. [12] Over land the retrieval of temperature from radiances is harder, because of inhomogeneities in the surface. [13] Studies have been conducted on the urban heat island effect via satellite ...
The North African town of Ouargla, Algeria, which is located in the Sahara Desert, just experienced temperatures of 124 F, or 51 C, which may be the highest ever recorded on the continent.
The relationship between climate change, water conflict and the war in Sudan has also been a topic of academic debate. [7] Blue Nile state has experienced significant impacts from climate change, being one of Sudan's fastest-warming regions. Since the 1970s, temperatures have risen by 1 °C (1.8 °F) each year.
Highest dew point temperature: A dew point of 35 °C (95 °F) — while the temperature was 42 °C (108 °F) — was observed at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, at 3:00 p.m. on 8 July 2003. [ 199 ] Highest heat index : In the observation above at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, the heat index ("feels like" temperature) was 81.1 °C (178.0 °F).
This is a list of countries and sovereign states by temperature. Average yearly temperature is calculated by averaging the minimum and maximum daily temperatures in the country, averaged for the years 1991 – 2020, from World Bank Group , derived from raw gridded climatologies from the Climatic Research Unit .
