37 degrees in London today - that feels "extreme"

Same again - only Farenheit.

Just checked, I rode 75km that day, and 100km today. Today was nicer

We've just been given a weather warning to expect around 20cm of rain over the next day or so

I think we've had that here in the last half hour.

A few months ago I was looking into this i.e. how does Paris 1.5-2.0 degrees temperature rise cause such extreme weather. I found this video very helpful to understand from a visual perspective.

You are probably better off looking at a 4.5c rise because that is where we are heading

Just been chatting with my old neighbor in Omaha.  They've had 8 inches of snow today and expecting another 8 by tomorrow night. 

It's 80 degrees here. I actually wish I was back in Omaha for a couple of days.

Just to reassure everybody, the extreme weather that that large parts of the world are experiencing right now are just a coincidence. So, nothing to see here.

And here's the thing - how long before infrastructure gets abandoned because it isn't worth rebuilding? And with broken infrastructure, what happens then?
