So, sorry if I seem a little confused here but just to clarify...
Everyone is in agreement with PM33 then ? Frankfurt didn't hit 40 degrees, the actual forecast wasn't for 40 degrees and any media claim of imminent 40 degree apocolypse was a beat-up nonsense ?
I can understand that you are a little confused (again). Critical thinking requires underlying intelligence and some education. Not everyone is endowed with with these gifts an opportunities. But don't be disappointed, there are many other activities that will give you a positive outlook on life. There's Wordle, Sudoku, even macrame are seen by many as productive pursuits.
Meteorological experts make
predictions about weather to keep people safe.
"In Germany, extreme heat warnings remain in place for large swathes of the country. National forecaster DWD
expects temperatures to reach 39C in Berlin, Hanover and Colone, while Frankfurt will reach 40C." (my emphasis).
"It is
quite possible that we will locally reach 40C," a DWD spokesman said."
"
Preliminary data from the German Weather Service (DWD) said the western town of Andernach in western Germany reached 39.3 degrees."
"
Parts of southern and western Germany have recorded highs above 38C, according to the German Weather Service (DWD). Cities including Berlin, Frankfurt, and Cologne have issued heat alerts, warning vulnerable groups, such as the elderly and those with chronic illnesses, to stay indoors during peak hours."
I guess you are disappointed Frankfurt only reached 38 degrees instead of the 31 degrees pcdefender claimed
had occurred.
But don't let your "little confusion" distract from pcdefender's lack of understanding about exertional heat stroke; that he seems to have moved on from.
