Google's Finnish to English translation....

At the weekend, there were spectacular sea surface-shattering tornadoes in the sea area between Pyhämaa and Kustav, which can be destructive at sea and on land. At the same time, thrombi were visible at their best 7. The picture was taken by an LSMV employee in North Åland.

Being Irish and having traveled to Ireland, I know to expect rain.  But two weeks of little rain is magical.

There could be near all time record heat in the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Northern France. The GFS has things getting as high as 106, but the Euro is less extreme, with showing highs getting up to 100.

London's all time record high is 100.6.  Going to be close per GFS.

Couple of 100s in England  100.6 is London all time and they got to 99.  Funnier part was me trying to figure out what time 16z was in London then realizing its 16:00.

Just unimaginable heat for that far up north. Even places much further south here in the US like Northern New England, Upstate New York, most of Michigan, and Western PA rarely see temperatures getting near or at 100.

And a sun that is a bit less direct than what we get this time of year here! I dread the day something like that happens where I live.

While UK hit its all time record hottest temperature today, I'll point out that 7 of the 10 hottest days have happened since 2003. Also point out that this was 6.3 degrees over the 1911 record which stood until 1990, and its 5.6 above the 1990 record.  Usually you don't see records beaten by that much

But why can't we just enjoy the sunshine?! /s

 

It wasn't just one or two stations that broke the previous all-time record today, it was at least 29!

Rivers have reached the levels that caused famines in previous years.

 

Maybe related to river levels and temperatures, there is a massive fish die off in the Oder.
