    I live north of Tokyo and the temperature here and in many other areas of Japan this summer was the highest ever recorded since recording began in the 1890s.

      I live near Austin, TX. We had a record for most consecutive days over 105°F that stood for nearly 100 years. 7 consecutive days over 105°F. We beat it twice this year. 11 consecutive days each time.

      Silver lining: bed bugs start to die at 45C, so climate change will likely kill off bed bugs in Spain. Hotels can simply turn off the AC and let a room bake in the sun.

          They could just not book the hotel for two days and bugs would be heatpurged.

        They’d just adapt eventually, which is the problem.

      it is normal for the temperature to be above the historical average, yes.

      I’ve seen the same information two days ago, on a wheather app. Maybe it’s happening worldwide?
