Record-breaking temperatures in September, October and November 2006 in the Netherlands

Just two months after July 2006, September 2006 showed itself the warmest September ever recorded since official measurements started. Additionally, October 2006 and November 2006 also broke several temperature records. October 2006 was one of the warmest Octobers since measurements began, and November 2006 seems to go in the books as the second warmest Novembers since official measurements started. With temperatures of 16 to 18 °C, varying from the north of the Netherlands to Belgium at the end of ovember, previous records has been shattered. The fall of 2006 is the warmest fall in history, breaking the old record of 2005 by 1.4°C as of November 26.
Such an sequence of events is unheard of in the Netherlands meteorological history, estimated to happen every 8.000 years when not taking global warming into account. It's been a result of a unique mixture of a hot summer increasing marine temperatures and Northern Atlantic hurricanes settling as depressings of the coast of Scotland, giving the European continent a constant stream of southern, fast winds rendering it unable to cool down from the Mediterranean through northern Europe.
