I looked over at commercial German news and weather today, and there's a curious piece popping up.
Normally, August is still a rough summer month, and usually ten days of 30-plus C (86 F or above). And most Germans would be betting on 35-plus temperatures for several days (meaning 95 degrees F).
Well....there's this front sitting over Iceland, and the jet stream is going to bring windy conditions, rain, and clouds for the first two weeks for August into Germany. The basic outlook? The temperature scale will stay mostly 24 to 29 C for at least two weeks for central Germany.
So weather folks are even suggesting that the jet stream deal might last through the end of August. For heat sufferers? Well, it would be marvelous news. Course, if you are a climate change worrier, it's terrible.
September's typical weather would mean typical average temperatures of 20 to 30 C, with some occasional rain. It is developing into fall.
A serious discussion over the jet stream? That's something that you rarely hear the weather PhD folks talking about and explaining to the general German public. I suspect if you asked a hundred Germans on the street....less than a quarter of them can explain the jet stream, and it's impact on weather patterns.
