The latest edition in an annual series of global climate reports shows that Europe experienced its warmest year in 2020 by a considerable amount.

The report showed that 2020 in Europe was 1.9 °C [3.4F] above the long-term average of 1981-2010. 

-----

2020 was the seventh year in succession where the Arctic recorded an annual average temperature more than 1.0 °C  [1.8F] above the average for 1981-2010. 

[And of course the average for 1981-2010 was above pre-industrial temperature.]
