Throughout 2022, every single month except December has been warmer than average, with many remembering the country’s ‘extreme’ heat during the summer season.

As climate change continues to affect countries around the world, its effects on the UK remain particularly notable, with the 10 years of warmest temperatures since 1884 all happening after 2003.

“Although it doesn’t mean every year will be the warmest on record, climate change continues to increase the chances of increasingly warm years over the coming decades,” Met Office National Climate Information Centre head Dr Mark McCarthy stated.
