Yeah. Some places in southern Norway will have had their May, June, and July record beaten back to back. Nope. You are as pr usual wrong wrt Norway.
If you look at individual months, only May broke records.
June was third warmest in the valleys W of Oslo.
There is some days left of July, but they will have to be very warm to make it warmest July. July is on track to be the third or fourth warmest July month in Oslo. It has really no chance of being the warmest.
Granted, in the valleys W of Oslo, July still has a chance of becoming the warmest, if the last part of the month is warm.
As I said, it is the prolonged heat that is unique, in addition to May.

Not a single station broke its record in June? A fair bit of Swedish stations broke their record, and they weren't near as above average as parts of Norway were. No July records incoming either?

by anomaly, Norway must be well much more above average; here it's a measly 2.2°C above average month to-date. when did the summer Norwegian heat wave start? That’s the most crazy part - the heat in Norway started in May with the warmest May ever in southern and central Norway and new all-time high 32.7C - and the heat is still here in late July. And virtually no precipitation in southern Norway for all this time. wasn't most June cool for southern coastal Norway? Or at least normal? July 2014 was warmer in Trondheim than this year |

London will almost certainly beat the average high from July 2006, but may not equal the mean from that month. Minima this month are still 1c below those of 2006.

It is only the part of Norway south of ca Røros-Lillehammer that had a warm June and a really warm July. |

Turku will see a top 5 hottest July, but likely no record. June was average, May was the hottest on record.

What are the month to date anomalies there? After 20 days of July, southern Norway (deviation is from the old 1961-90 normal, 1981-2010 is ca 1c warmer and would give 1c less deviation) Oslo (94 m asl): 28.5c/15.6c and mean 21.8c (+5.4c, record July: 22.7c) Oslo has only 5 mm precip in July and 248 sunhrs so far.
Drammen: 28.9c/14.8c and mean 21.8c (+4.7c), 65 mm precip since the end of Apr Gulsvik: 29.9c/13.7c and mean 21.5c (+6c) - 25 days (!) with 30c+ temps so far this year incl July 21th - a smashing new national record and the summer is not over. For the country 31 days with 30c+ by July 21th
On southern part of the west coast much more normal:
Stavanger: 21.2c/11.9c and mean 16.1c (+2.2c) |

The start to summer has been the driest on record in the UK. Some stuff from a BBC article: - The east of England has seen just 1% of its long-term average rainfall in July so far, while no region has had more than one-fifth. - In north-west England a hosepipe ban will be introduced on 5 August - unless there is a dramatic change in the weather between now and then. - United Utilities, which supplies north-west England, has asked for permission to take more water from three lakes in Cumbria to safeguard supplies. - A Met Office spokesman told the BBC there was no "significant sign" of change "any time soon". www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44903861Effects on landscape: www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-44885493 |

I'm amazed that July will probably surpass the 200 hour mark by the end of today. It's unthinkable in recent years.

Wow! -the UK can certainly get some big variation in summer temperatures. The highest a monthly maximum has been above long term average for my location, is 2.9C. Being near the continent has its benefits when the conditions align correctly. Although that quickly disappears as you head north. |

This July will definitely be in 2010/2011 territory. The heat just won't fucking end.

Anomalies for July:  Anomaly in June (barely above average in most of the country, yet even so a few places incl. Lund broke their record. June is a pretty stable month in terms of monthly deviations.  Anomaly this summer:  |

Stavanger: 21.2c/11.9c and mean 16.1c (+2.2c) Wow our record July would have a smaller anomaly in °F than yours in °C. Here's a northern hemisphere map of temperature anomalies this July  a lot of the northern hemisphere is warmer than usual and little colder but Scandinavia is the most extreme. By 500 hPa heights:  Scandinavia stands out even more, low heights over the north pole means polar air is locked in there, "vortex" probably applies more to winter? |
