Data analysis shows that so far this summer, Cologne-Bonn Airport has not experienced a real heat wave like most places in Germany. [emphasis, links added]
“Experts” predicting a “summer of hell” have been proven wrong.
first, There is no standardized international definition of the term heat wave. The definition is usually based on a combination of percentile-based thresholds.
For example, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) defines a heat wave as a period in which the daily maximum temperature exceeds the maximum normal temperature by 5 degrees for five consecutive days.
The beginning of summer, Climate alarmists predict Germany could experience 'summer of hell' Bringing extreme heat waves and suffering to the Germans.
Today we review this forecast using data from the weather station at Cologne-Bonn Airport.
Cologne-Bonn Airport is located in central Europe. The picture below describes daily high temperature Recorded there this summer:
Although the temperature has briefly exceeded 30°C several times this summer, There has never been a period of high temperatures that lasted for several days.
After reaching 33°C and 29°C on August 11th and 12th respectively, the temperature reached a high temperature of 34°C on August 13th.
In summary: Cologne did not experience a single prolonged period of extreme heat in the summer of 2024, unless you call three days of temperatures above 28°C a heat wave.
This is the case in most parts of Germany. Granted, some German cities may have experienced warm periods.
One thing is certain: the “summer of hell” in Germany that Mark Beneke earlier predicted has now become a reality. Revealed as a Silly Climate Horror Storyprobably to scare the children of “FridaysForFuture”.
