Based on a combined analysis of precipitation and average temperature, last year was the most unusual in the past 154 years, and compared to the period 1871-1900, February, July, winter and summer of 2024 were the most extreme, while August and spring were the second most unusual, HungaroMet wrote in a study published on its website.
A United States of Europe will come about, "but whether we Hungarians will be in it is a big question", Klara Dobrev, the MEP of the opposition Democratic Coalition (DK), told an event commemorating Hungary's 1848-49 revolution and freedom fight in Budapest.
Mid-December brought unusually spring-like weather to Hungary, with highs of 8-13 degrees Celsius on Monday and 6-12 degrees on Tuesday (December 16 and 17). Night frosts have also stopped in most areas due to a westerly flow that is bringing warm ocean air from the Atlantic.
Hungary is ready for the heating season and natural gas supplies are continuous from the south, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said in St Petersburg, adding that the country’s energy security was “guaranteed in the long term”.
