        I’m failing to see your point in reference to what I originally commented. last year to the day it was a new record of 40.3°, today it was 19° I was pointing out the stark difference in comparison to what Europe is currently experiencing and to what we experienced last year.

        Yeah and this time last year it was a furnace. I honestly feel sorry for mainland europe inhabitants, I was dreading this summer, my pets nearly died last year.
