In France, one can say that the beginning of the summer was dreary, marked by record rainfall and a lack of sunshine. Elsewhere, the weather has also made his own example, record heat recorded in Eastern Europe or steep temperature drops in some regions of the United States or Russia.
This map of Europe speaks for itself. Clearly areas where it was very hot (Eastern Europe, Sweden ...) or abnormally low (Southern Europe, the heart of Russia) is seen. © NASA MODIS Science Team
The Nasa has published global maps of temperature anomalies for July 2014 (and the week of July 27 to August 3, 2014). They were made from data acquired by the MODIS instrument satellite Aqua. www.enjoycoloring.com This is a Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer to measure cloud properties and the flow of radiant energy. Observing the entire planet every one to two days, it is able to deliver daily maps of surface temperature (LST). The latter is also called skin temperature as it reflects, to some extent, how a hot surface would feel to the touch.
