Winter of 2023-2024 is the third warmest ever measured in France, Météo France says. With a thermal anomaly of +3.6 degrees, February 2024 is the second hottest February in history after 1990 (+4°C) January was the eighth month in a row to be the hottest ever recorded in the world, according to the European Copernicus observatory.
