Same story over here. Beginning of June and the temperature exceeds 30°C easily. But you don't hear me complaining, I prefer this weather over the rain we usally have in The Netherlands.

You think weather in places is weird.....central east Italy 2 weeks ago (may 23) had 31.2c at 14:30 and 15.2c at 17:30, at night it was 4c. It's topping now 22c east of the mountains, when on whitsunday we had 30cm snow, whilst Holland officially now has their heatwave and Sweden has 27c......topsy turfy.....The Only Place in the World left, the White House, denies that there is no Global Warming, and certainly not made by humans.....less then 5% of the global population in North America, but burning 50% of global energy (7 years old data).....until Kyoto is ratified by all and adhered to, we will not be able to call back that departed train.....and noone knows when Gaia would recover.
