@hillbilly: Really? Where did you teach?

It was one teacher, Alan Lakin, that taught me about means and such (1966). So, thank you, Mr Lakin, I owe you so much!

: @Summer8906: No, I don't think so; the all-time maximum temperature is what it is -- the 2003 event was also down to the Foehn effect.

@Derecho: I don't think there are any limits, Derecho, at least not how things are going. That said, I can't see 50C being reached in my lifetime.

Even deserts struggle to reach 50 degrees, that's synoptically impossible on an island this far north. 40c was a push at the upper limit of what was possible in the most extreme setup.

And this is interesting; the climate models have got it wrong: the globe is warming faster than predicted!
PS: it may be YouTube, but these are respected climate scientists. . .

@sundog: It's nothing more than coincidental; the world contains loads of arithmetical correlations that mean nothing in nature. . .

And it's only going to get worse -- the maths isn't that hard.
But I did hear that an alternative definition of 'fossil fuel' is what Joe Biden eats for breakfast.

@John Stevens My apologies, John, my mention of 'chemtrails' was a pathetic joke, as they don't exist. . .
