The 31st annual State of the Climate report confirmed 2020 was among the three warmest years in recorded history. The Arctic Circle saw record-high temperatures in 2020, NOAA report finds Skip to ...
[15] [16] Since 2013, Arctic annual mean surface air temperature (SAT) has been at least 1 °C (1.8 °F) warmer than the 1981-2010 mean. In 2016, there were extreme anomalies from January to February with the temperature in the Arctic being estimated to be between 4–5.8 °C (7.2–10.4 °F) more than it was between 1981 and 2010. [17]
Simultaneous to the barrage of winter storms was a historic, long-lived outbreak of Arctic air in the Central United States. Temperatures 30-50 °F (17-28 °C) below average for prolonged periods from February 12–19 resulted in the entire month of February being significantly below average.
Data are provided as temperature anomalies against the seasonal average over a past basis period, as well as in absolute temperature values. The baseline period for the published temperature anomalies was changed in January 2021 from 1981-2010 to 1991-2020. [4] All the data products can be downloaded from the UAH server. [5]

Average summer temperatures on Svalbard range from 3 to 7 °C (37.4 to 44.6 °F) in July, and winter temperatures from −13 to −20 °C (8.6 to −4.0 °F) in January. [8] The highest temperature ever recorded was 23.0 °C (73.4 °F) in July 2020 [9] and the coldest was −46.3 °C (−51.3 °F) in March 1986. The archipelago is the meeting ...
Millions of people in the eastern half of the U.S. are scrambling for jackets and gloves as temperatures nosedive thanks to a blast of frigid air from Canada. And the below-average temperatures ...
These have very small annual temperature variations; average winter temperatures are kept near or above the freezing point of sea water (about −2 °C (28 °F)) since the unfrozen ocean cannot have a temperature below that, and summer temperatures in the parts of these regions that are considered part of the Arctic average less than 10 °C (50 ...
