Manu 🌊🐳🐦‍⬛🏔️🌎: Also, the continental weather makes summers warm over there. You really want 47C as here? With all the deaths we had, I doubt it. Extra points to the possible new distribution range for the Aedes aegipty after that. Ps: personal experience, it hurts! You don't want the hemorrhage one.

“Canada is such a northern country, don’t we want a little global warming?” I often hear. In a nutshell, NO. We’re warming 2x faster than the rest of the world, driving extreme heat, flood, and sea level rise we are not prepared for. The wildfire season started in Feb this year. Feb! #canadaday

we hit that in ottawa with the last heat wave (2 weeks ago) www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Ottawa sizzles under the hottest temperatures of the year | CBC Newswww.cbc.ca Dangerously hot and humid conditions persist Wednesday, with forecasted daytime highs in the low-to-mid 30s feeling like the 40s and little relief at night.

humidex might be weird depending on your location, but it's the air temp

That must have felt horrible as a heat wave. Hopefully everyone took caution there ❤️! The energy grid was ok? Ps: We got around 45 temperatures a whole month (Maybe a month and a half ) and it struck me against having a lite heat wave as I got used to in the UK.

grid is good www.ieso.ca/Sector-Parti... ... some people die, they always do based on the stats... montreal is the worst on avg; ottawa is main group which is around 20-30 annually during extreme weather month-long stretches must be really tough!

Oh god I remember summer in Montreal, it is really warm but to be honest it is milder than here and makes you able to go out!

So not want this to appear as a competition Jason but it was a sensation or real temperature? I have only that doubt because Texas-California to Baja Veracruz we had a sensation at 50-51 and reals on 45-47.

it's the air temperature; the one you feel. usually we don't have to deal with it like apac region does.

i love that we got papers online for this stuff nrc-publications.canada.ca/eng/view/ft/....

Reading it as soon as I get my coffee mug in a minute :D Thaaaaanks!

The difference in summer between the regions (Central ones, APAC, Caribbean, Atlantic and Gulf) is striking as always...

In mid _June_ !

We are in the 40s zone.

Literal New Zealand erasure lol (I was genuinely curious what it would look like on this map.)

Let me search for the original one ;)

I made a temperature quilt the other year, it gets you comparing climates with all the other people making them. The Canadians were using an entirely difference scale for theirs. I had no idea your climate was so extreme. Cold winters, yes, but the summers were a shock. (I'm in Scotland, it's mild.)

Scotland has very mild weather due to the gulf stream. Living there for 8 years taught me how their variations for your latitude guys are very "strange". A former girlfriend was from Montreal and she couldn't believe Glasgow was so far up north because our summers were mild compared to Montreal.

Yep, it's great. It means we're all really taken aback when there's weather beyond what we're prepared for, and the Scandinavians all laughed at us that bad winter in 2010, but generally we get a much easier time of it, and are profoundly grateful. We get less rain than we grumble about, too.

Bergen is like Glasgow multiplied by two🤣. I remember that I said that the French know nothing about cloudy and rainy days If they never been into Scotland, and that we used to know nothing about rainy cloudy days until we knew about Bergen! Do you remember the beast from the east a few years ago?!

Wasn't that the 2010 one, or around then? The snow was very pretty, but we couldn't get my wheelchair down the street, and I had trouble with a hospital visit due to their being generallly a bit overwhelmed.

Hang on, no, I'm conflating years. 2010 I was still with my ex who refused to touch my wheelchair.

Nope it was like 2018 when we ran out of bread and milk and the only aisles full of food were the milk substitutes and gluten free bread...😅! Oh god sorry to hear that, I was kind of the same cause I was waiting for hip surgery and it was bloody dangerous to go out with my walking cane...

Overall the Scottish weather is lovely!

Granted, I was only there about a week and a half last year, but it was in October when I expected it to rain CONSTANTLY in the Highlands. There were definitely showers, but it was only truly rainy one day the entire time I was there.
