A Siberian town, nestled about 6 miles within the Arctic Circle, has recorded a temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, likely setting a new record for the hottest temperature recorded that far north.

“This community is famous for having the biggest extremes between winter and summer than any city in the world,” Brettschneider said. “In January, their average high temperature is minus 47 degrees [Fahrenheit], and in June and July, their average temperature is close to 70 degrees. In their climate history, they’ve been above 90 degrees over 150 times, and above 95 degrees at least a dozen times.

According to NOAA’s global climate data, last month was the warmest May on record for the Asian continent, following what was the third-warmest April for Asia since record keeping began in the 1880s. It’s therefore critical to consider temperature records within the context of overall climate trends. The review process can take anywhere from six months up to a couple of years because researchers have to meticulously check to make sure the reading was not due to an anomaly. This involves verifying the equipment used to make the observations in Siberia and comparing it to readings of instruments in surrounding areas.
