It doesn't make much sense to get mad about anyone's shenanigans because we have the wonderful ability to use the ignore feature.

The 00Z Euro went back to the heatwave solution. Nothing is set in stone yet on the models. :think: :sick:

I think a heatwave is inevitable, its the extreme that is iffy. That solution is hot but not necessarily extreme in the context of recent years.

Although on second look, a low of 23 would be craptastic.

Wow the difference between the Goofus and the other two is stark. I'd be shocked if it was right, this feels like one of those winter events where the models. battle up until the last minute.

I am reminded of the old Fidonet saying: don’t provoke, don’t be easily provoked.
It's called clown range for a reason.

I come back after a few days to get an update on a heatwave, and I see now people are complaining about shenanigans?

If that was the case, then a certain member should have been banned years ago on provoking and gaslighting people and playing the innocent card.

Yet that's allowed every year, so let's just stick to weather.

I completely agree. Anything over 26 for me is a bit much, but once it hits 30, I can't do it.

Hopefully, with it being mid-August, the longer nights will help us cool down. I'm lucky I have AC, but the hot nights definitely suck for sleeping.
