Budapest records highest-ever dawn temperature
Budapest's Janos Hill witnessed 24.6 C at dawn on Saturday, a national record for the highest minimum temperature on this day, the national weather service said on its website.
In 2011, 23.4 C. was recorded in Lagymanyos, near Budapest, and 24.5 C. in the southern city of Szeged.
A daily high of 38.6 C. was recorded in Derekegyhaz on Saturday — though this was not a historical record — the same as the highest maximum temperature measured in Komarom in 1992.
