It is totally terrifying but also very strange to read about the record heat everywhere while we here in Germany had probably the coldest July in a decade. We had 16C where we should have had 30C. And we had rain, a lot of rain.
Yeah where I’m at in southwest Ohio in the US it has been one of the coolest, wettest summers also. So in order for the average to be the highest ever, other places had to be extra, extra hot.

Still, I’m terrified.
The world average temperature is up. Locally this puts more energy in weather
Taller storms, bigger hail, more cyclones/typhoons/hurricanes earlier and later in the season
Apparently the average is up in Germany, you just haven’t had any extremes this year.

I saw hail in fucking July in the Netherlands…
Also lots of rain of course.
Shit’s getting crazier and crazier.
Yeah July was basically November
I was in Germany in May and it was very cold as well but I guess more normal for that time of year. I was wishing I had brought my winter clothes!
Also, the week I left (June 1) Europe had a heatwave.
Jup, my “Summer Vacation” is now over. Very pissed off about the weather
