Strangely, North America often seems to dodge the worst of the heat on these maps. I feel this is actually somewhat unfortunate on a global scale, sound we have a lot of power and tend to be a substantial obstacle to energy policy change.
I've lived in Texas for twenty years, and this summer has been the most unbearable.
Texas and Mexico did experience a very hot summer but you can see from the rest of the map that other parts of the continent did not.
Do you think we'll see a lot of people moving north due to this?
Can only think of one comparable summer about a decade ago.
I'm so sure that unfortunately some people would still point to record low weather when winter comes and say that climate change is a hoax.
Yeah I live in Ontario near the great lakes and our last 2 summers have actually been relatively cool and we've had lots of rain too. I bet there are a lot of boomers that live around the great lakes that think climate change is complete horse shit, just because we've barely experienced anything negative yet.
But we also had all the smoke from the wildfires this year, we had a crazy snow storm the last 2 winters and last spring we had a wind storm that did tons of damage and knocked out power for days. So there are some negative things, just depends on if people believe it or not.
Florida could use a few extreme heatwaves.
Weird that you're all calling it "Earth's summer" when it's only been summer in the Northern hemisphere.. Not arguing the point, just saying it sure hasn't been summer down here in Australia
88% of all humans live in the northern hemisphere.
And yet human pollution affects everyone
Did the Southern hemisphere have a summer this year?
Sad part is it was hot AF this summer and my area isnt even in the red shaded areas.
