In a statement to Tunisie Numérique, Environment and climate expert, Hamdi Hashad, reported today, April 11, 2024, that the increase in temperatures registered over the past days is unnatural, but that the spring fluctuations that mark the weather of this period are natural.
Hashad added that these spring changes are characterized by sometimes showery weather and other times relatively cold, which is a natural climatic phenomenon.
Our speaker said that what is abnormal is that temperatures attained some areas in Tunisia during the past week, especially in the south, with an increase of approximately 8 degrees above normal levels, which is somewhat concerning. Pointing out that the European continent, in turn, saw in some countries a significant rise in temperatures that surpassed even 15 degrees above normal levels.
As for the impact of this phenomenon, our speaker stated that it is represented by the difference in the thermal system and the rain system, which is what made us witness climatic phenomena that change the structure of the seasons.
