Is it TRUE that these countries will be that hot?

Question

I heard on TV on some weather forecast that the weather in certain countries like Switzerland, Germany, Holland, France, Spain and Italy including the States will be REALLY hot this summer starting approx. from the 25th or the 26th of June..

Although England (which is close to France) will be much cooler due to some scentific reason .. !!..

Has anyone heard or read this ?

Note: ppl i kno u mite have not heard this but i need u to agree.. plz .. it'll mean a lot to me if u just agree and go along with me.. thanx =]

Answer 1

Well i am living in holland right now...it is not exactly the hottest place in the world...most of the time we get clouds and rain. I really hope that is will have a hott summer! 2 summers ago it was EXTREMELY hot! I have not heard so far if we are going to have a warm summer but when I know I will let you know =P

I hope your right though!

Answer 2

I am sorry but this has no scientific background. Every spring, the newspaper title about "weather prophecies." The only thing it does is to sell ... newspapers.

In south Norway, where I live, we've had a spell of hot and dry weather as we have never seen before. In fact, we have forest fires everywhere now and we hope it will rain soon (well, it will on Friday for my region).

The reason for this exceptional weather is not exceptional at all. Simply, a high pressure stayed stationary over Scandinavia. That happens on the average of three times a year, when the jetstreams weaken and the air masses are not transported from the west as it usually does on this frontal latitude.

Nothing is unormal. The global warming is real but we are talking about fractions of degrees per year; nothing we can perceive on a day to day basis in our life. Unless, of course, we live near a glacier that we can see receding.

Listen, on one side we have people who complains that the weather forecast for the day after is always wrong, then we have people telling us what the weather will be in a few weeks. That's nonsense!

Weather forecasting is decreasing in accuracy with time. You can probably tell the weather for tomorrow with a probability of 80%. For the next three days with a probability of 40% and for the next ten days with maybe only 10%!

If I was to tell you that yes, for your garden party in a fornight, the weather will be sunny but ... with a probability of only 2%, will you be willing to invest much time and money in it?

I think not.

The weather in Europe this summer will be as always: rain, sun, cold, warm, windy and calm. Lows are coming in as usual from the Atlantic, moving at an average of 25 knots and, in between, you can expect high pressure ridge with sunny weather.

In a British book about maritime meteorology, I read that if it is sunny in Britain, there are 70% chances that it will rain the day after. If it rains, there are 70% chances that it will be sunny the day after.

That is because - as I said - it is the time it takes for a low pressure to pass and give place to a high pressure ridge.

Now, if anyone can show me why this summer will be different and why e.g. the lows won't be coming as usual along the polar front, from the west, then I am listening and keen to learn. Otherwise, please don't listen to "propheties."

Answer 3

Yeah I actually just heard about that AND read it too online just two days ago .. I read/heard that Switzerland, Holland, France, Spain and Italy will be EXTREMELY warm this summer starting approximately the 25th or the 26th .. << just what u read ..

So lemme give you some piece of advice .. If you live in any of these countries make SURE you leave before the 25th of June .. and if you WANT TO go this summer then book ur hotels/ air plane tickets from now but NOT for the 25th .. go now .. or go in a week .. but DONT go on the 25th .. TRUST ME .. u do NOT wanna experience Europe when its hot ..

France was REALLY hot last summer ( I was there ) .. but this summer its gonna be even MORE hotter !!

Hope I helped.

P.S.  I also read that England, Iceland, Norway and Sweden will be much cooler cuz these countries are towards the North.

Answer 4

Yeah... I heard that too from a number of my colleagues at work. Its gonna be REALLY hot that people will be walking around in the bikinis!!!



It might get to 38, 39 and possibly even 40 degrees celcious! Especially France, Spain, Italy and Switzerland. They are normally hot in the summer (believe me I know, I live there) but this year they will be even WARMER than ever. And yes I did read that England will stay the same as it is now... it wont get warmer towards the end of June. It mite even be a bit cooler << Lucky them, huh? Ooh well...

I kno ur gonna ask why England since its pretty close to France? But I heard its due to some environmental reasons! Don't ask why again... I'm no scientist! LOL

Hope this helped <3
