  1. That has always been my luck I leave a country and the weather gets hot. I lived in Riga, Latvia for 20 years and I always complained that the summers could be hotter. Mostly they were cool and at worst cool and rainy. Then I moved back to the U.S. and now Latvia and other European countries have hot summer weather go figure.

  2. I’m from Slovenia, where there are also hundreds of recordings for the month of June … yesterday there were 38 … in some places there were also 40 degrees
