The global land surface temperature was the warmest on record for March,
3.3°F above the 20th century mean of 40.8°F. Temperatures more than 8°F
above average covered much of the Asian continent. Two months after the
greatest January snow cover extent on record on the Eurasian continent, the
unusually warm temperatures led to rapid snow melt, and March snow cover
extent on the Eurasian continent was the lowest on record.
