Um, excuse me. Thunderstorms are amazing! I’ll take a good thunderstorm everyday of the summer over the heat and sun
My probtis i love in a tiny apartment with two cats. My windows were kept tight to keep on the pitiful amount of cold air from my window unit, but not being able to open the windows at night means my timy apartment starts to smell like cat real fast
Why can’t you open the windows?
Edit: Ah wait I just remembered that German tilting windows aren’t a thing everywhere
Every time there’s a thunderstorm, a town or city floods. Infrastructure is not built for the kinds of rain we’re seeing now and it used to be so rare it wasn’t an issue. Now everyone is scrambling to build water handling systems.
This is not the case everywhere.
Not yet
They’re fine if you don’t care about leaving the house.
Is that supposed to be a negative? LOL
Forest fires and the terrible air quality they cause
Swede here, there has been a lot of posts about a heatwave in Europe, so far the summer here has been very mild, and this is the weather I am seeing in the weather app for my two week summer vacation:
Ok that’s it I’m moving
Hehe, just be aware that like the rest of Europe, we mostly don’t have AC at home, and our houses are built to keep heat in, so when it does get hot, it is not ideal
In the north we are mostly marsh land too so the humidity is peak
don’t forget the endless mosquitoes!
And no-see-ums (biting midges) I have such a bad reaction to those pricks
I’m German and I’ve got an AC but I never set it lower than 26°C because that would be reckless 😅
I’m using Swedish VPN so I’m having the same weather :D
That’s pretty much our middle of the winter temperatures here in Australia right now.
That’s the dream temperature. Literally 20 degrees less than here.
I loved it in the tropics. 40C day, then right on 4pm, BAM!!! It’s 25C, there’s an epic lightning show, 10 mins later it’s gone, the roads are steaming, and a nice balmy 28C night kicks off.,
1996 was probably the last time I said I can’t wait for summer. Summer sucks.
Ironically that was my first summer in this world
@Venus_Ziegenfalle literally went to the equator and everyone at home in Germany is complaining of 39 °C heat wave while I got 27°C
Do not miss growing up in south Texas and having to deal with hot rainstorms.
And hail.
Do not miss hail.
cute
Yes but The Thing is: Mood is still much better because there is plenty light till night.
Oh yeah for sure. My fav season despite everything.
Yeah I find winter outright depressing
Heat index of 107 and rainy today.
