I think I’ll be giving Southern Europe a miss in July and August in future.

They don’t deserve a pay rise when you see how they actually handle our bags.Gatwick baggage handlers planning to go on strike on our holiday dates
It’s seriously hot here now, and we’re not in Aug yet. We were in high 40’s in the shade yesterday, over 50* in the sun mid afternoon. Granada province is predicted to get close to 60* today.

Only because the school moan if you take kids out of school as it affects their schooling yet it is ok for the teachers to have a feet up day and put a dvd on. Isn't this the same? Come on surely you could see this?

Well done!!!! Wish I'd seen this post before replying to the other daft question.We actually got fined for taking him out of school for 1wk in June.
I refused to pay it & got threatened with court & a bigger fine
Didn’t get a penny out of me.
They have god knows how many inset days & strike days,yet they were “worried” the kids wouldn’t catch up after COVID.
Always time for Mr Bean tho.
Rant over.

Is the weather really as hot across Europe as is being claimed?

I’d never seen 46* in the shade here before. I have now. Yes around Sevilla, which is called Spain’s frying pan but not here. Never seen 50* displayed on the Farmacia’s sign before but did 2 days ago.
Aircon usually goes on around 9pm. It’s been going on from mid morning in the last week.
Yes. Why would it be claimed otherwise?Is the weather really as hot across Europe as is being claimed?

What’s more shocking is that they sued for $15m

Those figures are a bit screwy, pharmacy temps are not to be trusted. A quick Google says the top temp in Spain ever is either 47.8 in 1976 or 47.6 in 2021.
The hottest temperature ever recorded on earth is 56.7, death valley in 1913.
Stil, no doubt it is still unpleasantly toasty
So you think taking isolated examples demonstrates the trend in global temperatures? Tinfoil hat back on.

Meanwhile in England it's set to rain again next week? This has been about the worst July weather I can ever remember.

It chucked it down on St Swithin's day so we are stuffed until 24th August.
Increased rain and more stormy conditions overall is a side effect of climate change.

It was something I saw elsewhere. No idea if it has been altered. The figures on the green map are hotter than the figures on the red map
