Denmark Marks First Official Summer Day with Record-Breaking Temperatures

Yesterday, a temperature of 25.2 degrees Celsius was recorded in Stauning, marking Denmark’s first official summer day of the year. According to meteorological criteria, a summer day is defined as a day where the temperature reaches at least 25 degrees in any part of the country. Meteorologists at the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) confirmed the temperature on the social media platform X, where they shared the news of the first summer day.

Interest in the weather was particularly high, as as early as Tuesday it was predicted that summer was on its way, with a nearly summer day where the temperature in Stauning reached 24.9 degrees. This early summer day is not a record-breaking earliest one. The earliest recorded summer day in Denmark occurred on April 17, 1964, when the temperature also reached 25.2 degrees, but it was at Klosterhede Plantage. In comparison, the latest first summer day in Denmark was much later in the year, on July 30, 2004.

The early arrival of summer heat this year brings hopes of a long and enjoyable summer, but Danish weather is known for its variability, so it’s important to enjoy the sunny days when they are here.
