There have been many hours of sunshine in 2025, and this year is approaching the record for the number of hours of sunshine in a year since they began to be counted in 1920. This is reported by TV 2.
So far, the sun has shone for 1875.8 hours in 2025. This brings the year 2025 to a provisional fourth place among the sunniest years in Denmark. The sunniest year was in 2018, when the sun shone for a total of 1905 hours. This means that 2025 is only a good 29 hours of sunshine away from the record. The data was compiled by the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) on Saturday morning.
According to TV 2's meteorologist Jonas Damsbo, there is a possibility of moments with some sunshine in the coming period due to the "colder air mass". Therefore, there is a good probability that 2025 can set a sunshine record. Seven of the top 10 sunniest years since 1920 are from this millennium. 2022 was the second sunniest year. According to a summary from the DMI, the average number of sunshine hours in December for the years 2011-2022 was 39.9 hours.
