2022 is about to be confirmed as the hottest year ever for Italy since 1800.
The temperatures in December are in fact in line with the trend of the first 11 months of the year, already highlighted by the Cnr-Isac institute.
This was stated by the climatologist Bernardo Gozzini, director of the Lamma-Cnr Consortium, adding that the 2022 record concerns both maximum and average temperatures.
For low temperatures, however, the record year was 2018
which is the second hottest year ever after 2022. In the world, however.
2016 was the hottest year globally, ahead of 2020 and 2019.
