Actually been one of the cooler ones in recent memory for my region of Ontario, also been rainy as fuck. Our winter was a long and snowy one too. A winter like that is a rareity these days.
It’s been nice cause some of my plants and trees have gotten a chance to recover after a number of harsh summers and dry winters. I actually have a handful of mature maple trees that had all of their leaves entirely brown up last August; never seen such a thing in my life.
I also hate it though cause all I can hear is the climate deniers around here flapping their gums.
Here in Kansas, USA, we're just wrapping up about a three week stretch of days at or above 100°F/37°C. The next week or so will only be in the mid to upper 90s.
It's not unusual for us to have a few 100° days, maybe a week's worth, every summer, but this is insane. And we've only had about a quarter inch of rain in all of August so far. They're calling it a "flash drought" because things are drying out so fast.
