Alright refugees!

I reckon we need to have a threat to chat. About stuff. With reddit 'closing' for the next few days in some cases, and foreseeable in others, I felt like this thread was appropriate.

What are you all up to today? Anything interesting going on? I already know it's too hot.

What happened to the Gulf Stream? I learnt in school that the Gulf Stream kept our temperatures in a nice moderate range. Why did I have to run the central heating for most of May, then 2 weeks later open all the windows and keep the fan on all night? Where has the Gulf Stream gone and how do we get it back?

I stay in the Northern Isles, believe me the gulf stream keeps our temperatures in a very moderate range. If you like it gray and damp the North of Scotland has you covered.

Isn't all of Scotland just grey and damp though?

Yeah, I travelled down to Inverness from Orkney on Saturday. There was a 10 °C temperature difference from 11 to 21.
