Temperature differences between the warmer coast and far northern inland sections can exceed 36 degrees Fahrenheit (20 degrees Celsius), with rain near the coast and frozen precipitation, such as sleet and freezing rain, falling inland. Two-thirds of such events occur between November and April. [4] which moves from northeast to southwest.
The result is an estimated total sea level rise of 2.3 metres per degree Celsius (4.2 ft/°F) after 2000 years. [211] Oceanic CO 2 uptake is slow enough that ocean acidification will also continue for hundreds to thousands of years. [ 212 ]
The all-time high of 121 °F (49 °C) [35] nearly rivals the record high temperatures of Phoenix, Arizona (122 °F (50 °C)) and Palm Springs (123 °F (51 °C)). The city of Burbank, at the eastern end of the Valley, is also known for being significantly hotter than downtown Los Angeles, which is only 9 miles (14 km) to the south.
If the absolute temperature of the air in the tire increases by 1% to 303 K (30 °C; 86 °F), the absolute pressure also increases by 1%. The absolute pressure is the sum of the ambient atmospheric pressure (approximately 1.01 bars [101 kPa; 14.7 psi] at sea level) and the gauge pressure, giving a total of 3.21 bar (321 kPa; 46.6 psi).
The climate of New England varies greatly across its 500-mile (800 km) span from northern Maine to southern Connecticut. Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, and most of interior western Massachusetts have a humid continental climate (Dfb under the Köppen climate classification). In this region, the winters are long, cold, and heavy snow is common ...
Snowfall is uncommon, with just around an inch (2.54 cm) of snow annually. Air temperatures typically range from 40 °F (4 °C) to 75 °F (24 °C) all year. [41] The record high temperature of 102 °F (38.9 °C) was recorded on September 22, 2009, [42] and the record low of 12 °F (−11.1 °C) was recorded on December 21, 1990. [43]
Canada's annual average temperature over land has warmed by 1.7 °C (3.1 °F), with changes ranging from 1.1 to 2.3 °C (2.0 to 4.1 °F) in various regions, since 1948. [4] The rate of warming has been higher across the North and in the Prairies. [4] In the southern regions of Canada, air pollution from both Canada and the United States ...
The highest temperature yet recorded is 13 °C (55 °F), [60] much warmer than the South Pole's record high of only −12.3 °C (9.9 °F). [61] A similar [ clarification needed ] spike in temperatures occurred on 15 November 2016 when temperatures hit freezing. [ 62 ]
