Summer 2021 was exceptionally hot when compared to a summer average from 1951-1980.

But it felt cold in large parts of Europe? This map must be wrong?

It turns out, 'how we feel' can be explained - without data, we are just opinions.

A thread...

Brutal winter freeze to historic heatwave.

The USA has witnessed some of its wildest extremes on record in the last 4 months.

More records likely to fall, stay tuned.

Ouch! We just witnessed the joint hottest on record in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) 🇦🇪

A blistering 51.8°C (125.2°F) was observed in Sweihan. This is truly staggering.

Finland's 🇫🇮 most northern weather station within the Arctic Circle just recorded a staggering +29.3°C (84.7°F) at 70.1N.

This is exceptional for early June and a stark contrast to the remarkable low temperatures under cloud and rain further south.

It reached +30°C (86.5°F) in the Arctic today. Hotter than pretty much all of Europe right now.

Truly exceptional for any time of the year but mind-boggling for May. More updates to follow.

Extreme heat will pulse north through Russia and into the Arctic this week.

We are looking at record breaking heat for this time of year with air temperatures above +30°C (86°F) on the fringe of the ice sheets.

Exceptional heat. You would be able to stand and look over the Barents Sea in the Arctic Circle in shorts and shirt today.

It reached a baking +27°C in Nizhnyaya Pesha 🇷🇺. This is >20°C hotter than a typical daytime high for this time of year.

Meanwhile, much of Europe shivers.
