    By on April 10, 2026

    Cologne:  Europe recorded its second warmest March on record, according to the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service.

    Data showed that the average temperature in Europe reached 5.88°C, about 2.27°C above the 1991–2020 average, marking the second highest level since records began.

    Globally, March ranked among the warmest on record, with an average temperature of 13.94°C, reflecting a continued rise in global temperatures.

    The data also indicated that global temperatures were 1.48°C above pre-industrial levels (1850–1900), and 0.53°C higher than the 1991–2020 average.

    Sea surface temperatures reached 20.97°C, the second highest level recorded for March, while Arctic sea ice fell to its lowest level for the month, declining by 5.7 percent below average.

    Weather patterns across Europe showed sharp contrasts, with drought affecting wide areas, while heavy rainfall caused flooding in parts of the Mediterranean and Scandinavia.

    Carlo Buontempo, Director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, said the data reflects increasing pressures on the global climate system, calling for continued monitoring.
