Cooler than average days this summer have just completely died out, even in our hottest summers we do get odd day here and there interspersed. We are coming up 2 months since last daily max temperature was 1C below average in London on already warmer baseline. Freakishly warm period surely it can’t sustain indefinitely.
Provisionally July 2026 was the warmest ever recorded with temperatures a remarkable 3.5°C above the long term average 🥵 📈
This follows on from record breaking temperatures in both May & June.
Fittingly July ends how it started an exceptionally sunny month with historic warmth and also dryness.
We’ve been transported to SoCal, upper echelon summer month.
The raw figures even uncorrected make it sunniest month on record (1957-present) at LHR with ~328 hours of sunshine factoring also today.
This is even sunnier than May 2020, it obliterates former July 1959 record by over 50 hours.
1. After thousands of migrants crossed into Ceuta from Morocco this week, Italy threatened to “suspend Schengen with Spain.”
It just can’t.
Under EU law, no Member State can unilaterally suspend another’s participation in Schengen.
The United States stands with the people of Spain, and all Europeans, against this egregious violation of their sovereignty and human rights.
This unacceptable incident is the direct result of the Spanish Government's deliberate efforts to enable and facilitate mass illegal migration into Europe.
We are considering actions to defend Americans at home and abroad from this threat and stand ready to assist other European allies considering similar options.
Stop comparing Leopold Aschenbrenner to Bill Hwang...
Hwang is the GOAT of degenerates and Leopold is a sheep compared to him
Did you know that Hwang turned $200M to $36B and it was ALL personal capital?
This guy literally led prayer circles in the conference room before trading days started
He had $160B stock exposure on just $36B of capital
His blowup happened in two days and he literally caused the collapse of one of the most prestigious investment banks
Banks lost a total of $10B combined because of his collapse
Leopold is nothing compared to Bill
Mind the gap…
Most of London has missed showery rain, so a totally rainless calendar month is pretty much confirmed. The first in at least 155 years. #drought
@YugoslavVisuals There must have been a faculty which produced architects obsessed with brutalism, who was the final boss? 🤣 so many such buildings in yugo
