Climate talk: Europe (warm, recorded, temperature, 2015)

[Botev1912]

I like some heat during summer too unlike most people who live in Seattle. They prefer 65 degrees in July, hate heatwaves and can't wait for occasional rainy days in summer.

Avg difference of 11.7F. Some years as low as 5F, others as high as 16F. Our avg lows differ by 14-15F, but as this shows that sometimes the cold hardly moderates at all. Three years there in the last 10 where the diff between us was less than 10F.

Wow I didn't realise you got quite so low every year!

My ideal summer temps are 26-27c, with a few cooler 22c days, and a few heat spikes into the mid or high 30s.

Ukko and Odin bless the Gulf of Finland.

Yup, and as you can see seems we are getting colder in recent years. Now you know why I hate winter. Despite an avg low of 25.5F, you can see just how unstable we are year after year, while London barely goes 10F below its avg Jan low temp. I hate continental climates in winter.

[Ariete]

I won't even dig into those, as I estimate that we won't get below 0F/-18C like 2 times in 10 years.

And of course I must add your low temps look warmer than Charleston, Savannah, and Mobile, AL. At least you have consistency, while they do not. Given enough time, cidp will look healthier in London than Charleston or Savannah. That is sad.
