Not only was this year’s September the warmest since the beginning of measurements, but the sun shone for 40-50 hours more than average in some parts of the country, the National Meteorological Service wrote on its Facebook page.
According to their announcement, the warm weather in September is also supported by the monthly sunlight duration data, with the sun shining 40-50 hours more than average in quite a few places. This is due to the fact that the weather of the month was largely determined by anticyclones, i.e. cloud-dispersing effects prevailed, they added.
