If you live in europe, please check in with your elderly neighbours. Hot temperatures can be deadly for old people
You must log in or # to comment.
Warm summer? Pfft. It’s the coolest summer for the rest of our lives!
That depends on where you are.
Hahaha that is so depressing hahaha
goes to cry in a corner
Possibly the worst color scale I’ve ever seen on a chart
Europe needs to normalize air conditioning. I’ll never forget the most miserable summer of my life was in germany. Summer gets hot there just like most other places, but in Europe, domiciles don’t have AC 🥵
This will probably start to change if this is now the reality but at least historically the reason Europe didn’t have air conditioning was it wasn’t worth it for the 4 days of the year that it would be used.
The other reason being that houses won’t design to be air conditioned, we don’t have ducted heating so if I bought an air conditioner and had it installed in a room it would air condition that room, if I wanted air conditioning in my house I would have to have a unit fitted in each room, that’s going to get expensive. Alternatively I could buy this £15 fan from Lidl.
I have medical documentation saying I need adequate temperature control and I have offered my landlord to pay all costs associated with installing AC and still they banned me from having AC 😭.
What is up with France?
Hot
It’s a fucking oven.
Genuinely cooking.
There were 20 drowning deaths this weekend because people were jumping into dangerous rivers to escape the heat.
Wtf did the map burn a hole in France?
I think the gates of hell are there.
Not only are the colours bad, but the numbers are too? How is a max of 18 in summer worrying? We are way above those numbers.
That’s variation from the average. It could certainly have been presented better.
That’s not the temperature. That’s the degree to which the temperature is strange.
The graph stops at 18°C, that’s the temperature it should be not the temperature that it is. Also why does it have two whites, white is apparently both zero and 13, which is bizarre because it’s definitely hotter than 13 everywhere in Europe right now and probably in Iceland as well. This map makes no sense.
The scale is “temperature anomaly” so this is deviation from the norm, not the temperature itself
Sorry but you’re reading this all wrong
11°C here right now and boy am I enjoying it! Perfect summer, finally.
While yes, a 14c deviation from average temperatures is fucking insane, so is this map. The scale is cooked.
It means that statistically, of the climate was constant, the temperatures we have now would be as probable as having 6°C.
What’s it measuring against average temperature for this time of year because Europe does get hot at this time of year we know that. It’s also not as bad as the heat wave we had 6 weeks ago. Not too underestimate our awful the weather currently is.
I assume it’s comparing against the average temperatures for June 21-26 as that would align with what my weather app says, which compares with the average temperatures since 1970
What a great time to visit such a rural paradise that is Lithuania!
Where else could i cross-post this?
Somewhere they post horrendously bad data color choices
A better climate change map can be posted on
Amongst others
Hunh. I’m betting that’s the first time Le Mans has had something so massively impactful in common w/ Laredo, TX. 🫢
We used to have backbone. The count rised taxes too high and people picked up their pitchforks and torches. Now the rich elite makes planet inhabitable and no one cares to even complain about it loudly.
