Yeah. Arvika in the west with an average high of 29.1'C so far hasn't had a single 90f day whereas Uppsala in the east with 28.2 'C average high has had 6 of those (5 in a row!). huh, that's really consistent; thought northern European heat waves tend to be variable. Usually I'd expect places with high monthly variability to get large daily variablity; instead the summers seem rather stuck. Heathrow has been very consistent as well.

The awful crummer last year and the hot one now has resulted that there's 20 times more wasps than last year. And man are they aggressive.

The current Scandinavian omega block which has persisted for 3 weeks is a textbook example of consistency. We saw the same situation in the summer of 2014.

Current fires in Sweden:  My friend saw a guy throw a lit cigarette into some bushed and it started smoking more and more. This was right next to the university. |

Do you have your mind intact? Let me fix that for you. Gulsvik at 60°N and 140m ASL hasn't had a sub-25'C high since the 24th of June, but during that time, they haven't had a single 90'f high, even though they've had an average high of 30'C  |

^Yeah extremely persistent warmth at Gulsvik.
Although 33.1C on Jun 26th is almost 92F.
And now 34C is forecasted at Meråker friday, valley east of Værnes

better satellite comparison is to July last year rather than this summer to spring as summer in Britain is almost always browner than spring. When I visited London this May, it looked a less lush than I was used to for May though wasn't brown.

When I visited London this May, it looked a less lush than I was used to for May though wasn't brown. Up to May this year it had been much wetter and cooler than average. In an average year it wouldn't turn brown until late June or early July, until September. In 2012 it was only brown in August and September. |

Local meteorologists are saying the heatwave could last until mid-August. That's crazy and now I demand a full month of -25°C to -35°C temps in the winter.

Very green over there. |

That would be fine and dandy if Gulsvik were a maritime or oceanic place, but it's not close to being maritime, at least not for nordic standards. Good luck getting a sea breeze in Gulsvik.

There probably would be a sea breeze in Gulsvik, but not as obvious as a place by the sea. Gulsvik shows about the same degree of stability as places inland during last summer here How a sea breeze is going to get past 100km of 700-1500m mountains beats me. |

Is duckweed bloom as shown in the article, unusual for there? Not particularly, my nan's frog pond is full of the stuff. |

That's sensationalist reporters for ya -the duckweed bloom was implied as unusual Think they were referring to the amount, from what I've seen it usually stays around the edges of sizable ponds, but in that picture it appears to have taken it all over. |
