    The variability is crazy this year too. North Europe is having 30º C mid days and 12º evenings which is very unusual and obviously not great for people and infrastructure.

      Sounds like normal continental weather to me.

      These kind of ranges are normal in the North East of Germany if you are outside the heat islands of cities. If by North you mean Scandinavia it might be a bit unusual there because of all the water mellowing out the temperature range, but for central Europe such ranges are to be expected.

          I agree.

          But I’m not the one needing to be convinced, the snow argument was touted by Trump himself as well as echoed in other conservative spaces.

    I feel sorry for Europeans who aren’t geared for this. Couple of years ago a monster heat dome sat on the Pacific Northwest. Many of my coworkers lived in and around Seattle and were suffering the lack of AC. My brain can’t imagine living without.
