If data after 2010 was also taken into account (or rather, mainly taken into account) I think it would be a bit higher.

Other cities have warmed too if you compare 1980-2010 or 1990-2020 to 2011-2022, however I think Bucharest warmed a bit more than most other cities. For 2011-2022 the average is 24.6C which is 2.1C warmer than the 1980-2010 average. Here in Toronto, the downtown station increased from only 22.3C (1980-2010) to 23.1C (2011-2022), which is a 0.8C increase. The airport station increased from 21.5C to 22.8C, which is a bigger increase than downtown (1.3C) but still less than the 2.1C increase Bucharest experienced.

Ash12345 Posted July 30, 2022 Author Posted July 30, 2022 24 minutes ago, TheArgonaut said: Never thought China was that hot. It's easy to forget how far south China is. People like to say how Stockholm and Olso are further north than Churchill, Manitoba, which has polar bears. Or how England is as far north as Labrador which gets buried in 5m of snow each year. And yes, it's true that Europe benefits from the Gulf Stream in the winter which helps keep it warm compared to Canada. But Canada still benefits from not being Western Siberia, which is another 10C colder in the winter than the parts of Canada that are at similar latitudes (and 30-35C colder than Europe at similar latitudes). And guess what's right under Western Siberia. That's right, China. Which is why China still gets cold winters despite being really far south. Beijing is about as far south as the Mediterranean island of Majorca. But Beijing's winters are about as cold as Gothenburg's (in Sweden). Shanghai is as far south as Alexandria, Egypt, but its winters are more like Northern Ireland's. As result, China isn't really thought of as a semi-tropical climate, because most of it still has cool to cold winters. However, in the summer, it's a different story. Western Siberia can get quite warm in the summer with the 20 hour long days and lack of oceans to moderate things. Which allows China to reach its full semi-tropical potential and get long, hot summers. So somewhere like Shanghai experiences much bigger temperature variations than Western Europe. Although its winters are like Ireland's, April (15.3C) to October (19.7C) in Shanghai are all warmer than Dublin (15.0C) in July. And Harbin in Northern China is totally frigid in the winter, but the summers are as hot as in Milan, Italy or Toulouse in southern France. This is a city that has colder winters than the coldest reindeer herding Sami villages in far northern Norway. Eastern Asia has very extreme annual variations in temperature compared to other places at similar latitudes. Winters are cold but summers are not. The one exception is Japan which is surrounded by oceans so it just gets a lot of snow but not that much extreme cold, and the really southern areas like Taiwan and Hong Kong that the Siberian air doesn't really reach. Western Siberia, Mongolia, Northern China and Korea get very big temperature variations though.
