Third extended heat wave within 6 weeks.
The previous one exceeded 40°C, and the buildings not yet had time to completely cool down from that one before the third wave hit.
I was considering putting up a tent in my garden myself, but as I own a ground floor flat, the indoor temperatures did, with the help of some additional cooling measures, thankfully not exceeded 27°C.
Hammock would be the way to go!
Mosquitos: “looks like meat is back on the menu boys!!”
The only minor upside from the fact, that it also is one of the driest summers in my region so far:
No mosquitos.
Even the freshly imported Asian Tiger Mosquitos, which normally start roaming in July and need less open water, are almost completely absent (and they are only active during daytime).
