Temperature rises to record high for January 22
A record hot 16 degrees were recorded on Friday in Főnyed, southwest Hungary, the Hungarian Meteorological Service (OMSZ) has said.
The highest temperature ever recorded in Hungary on January 22, before today, had been 15.5 degrees Celsius measured in Ásotthalom, southern Hungary, in 1956, OMSZ said.
Although the sky over most of the country wass very cloudy and the weather was rainy in several places, the sunshine helped to break the previous record.
UPDATE: The town of Sellye in Baranya County seems to have the “race” by 16.6 degrees – in all likelihood this value will be verified later.
UPDATE2:
New Hungarian maximum: 16.5 ° C (Nagyatád)
New Hungarian minimum: 10.1 ° C (Pér Airport)
No new record was set for the capital.
