14°C = 57°F
Italy?
Belgium
Oh merde
It was warmer here in my part of Italy, 20°C.
It’s supposed to be sub-zero this time of the year…
Thank you for writing 57°F instead of 57.20°F :)
My best Christmas ever was in Belgium. We were supposed to go to Germany for the day to visit distant relatives. A blizzard closed everything and instead I got to stay in a bathrobe and read.
Now I would have to go and pack a bathing costume. I am not a fan of climate change.
I won’t ever forget how cold it got here last Christmas in Appalachia.
I closed the store for the 24th and 25th. When I came back the place was flooded because the heat stopped working and the pipes in the ceiling exploded. The entire store was flooded and I spent the day after Christmas pushing water out of the store.
I had to take a heater and melt the ice to finish the job.
What a nightmare.
Same here in the UK. Far too warm.
It’s storming and 60 degrees where I live.
It should be cold and snowing.
I’m glad I never had kids. Can’t imagine how bad it’s going to be in a decade or two when the shit really hits the fan.
January and February is when it normally gets cold here.
People like to pretend that Christmas was a time of snow and ice, but that’s pretty rare. Dickens wrote about them, but his childhood coincided with the coldest decade in over a century.
Mate what? You typically see -3 to maybe 7C. It’s 13-14C today it seems. That’s not normal.
The warmest Christmas in UK history is 15C. Yesterday was the hottest Christmas eve since 1997. We won’t know until tomorrow if today is the hottest Christmas on record.
Quit your climate change denial bullshit.
Lived in my city for 37 years. Never had a “brown Christmas” until this year. It has also been above freezing every day this winter. Not the norm.
These are the temps in the notoriously cold Minnesota as well. I’m unsettled and upset.
Yup. I’m Northwest of you in Canada and I can see my lawn. I’m not supposed to see my lawn…
(At least until March at the earliest. We have a little bit of snow but not much, most of it melted)
Same in Wisconsin, lawn is greener now in December than it was in June because we had a drought this summer. It’s really uncomfortable.
Winter mornings shouldn’t feel like spring middays
It is 20C where I am. I don’t remember it ever being over 5-10 in this area, during December. I’m still wearing shorts, while usually going outside without a thick hoodie and a scarf used to be a stupid idea.
And on the flip side of that, the summer was so hot, that we all had to bunker inside, to avoid high humidity heat.
Welcome to climate change~
I feel bad for you, hope you have a nice Christmas anyways. But here (Gutenberg, Sweden) we have ~0°C and snow outside. That’s not exceptionally cold, but we still have snow *-<|:+)
Today I’m working outside in a t-shirt. Comfortably. It’s even fucking raining and I still don’t need a jacket.
Laughs in Australian with regular +30°C Christmases
Laughs in Argentinian with regular +40°C Christmases lately
Not that 40+ is close to okay but I think I’d still be a little worried if you or op were having christmases like what we used to experience up here until like the late ‘00s
Yeah that’d be a bit worrisome I reckon lol. I do want to experience a cold Christmas someday tho
Yeah, we had 27 yesterday (Christmas eve) and light rain all day. Very uncomfortable for New Zealand. At least today is a tad cooler
I honestly wasn’t expecting such humidity in an el niño summer
I think the bushes are on fire, mate.
Meanwhile here in Adelaide…A drizzle of rain and a top of 18C
What. The. Fuck.
Similar in the Capitol, unusual weather. It’s gonna get bad the next few years I reckon (assuming we get through this summer unscathed).
Freakishly warm today in the midwest too, raining warm rain too, very odd weather for winter season
Today i got up and walked my dog at 9am. The sun was shining and i was wearing shorts and a long sleeve shirt, it was super nice. 20ish years ago at this time, i was skiing through the streets of the town i live.
We had a nice blanket of snow earlier this week here in NEOhio but it was gone 36 hours later
As Global Warming slowly kills us all, try to enjoy it!:-) 😭
At least we won’t be cold.
Nuclear winter is calling
Sadly, that part comes later as well:-(.
The only bright side is that after the adjustment period, Earth is going to be just fine - no lie! (Humans living on it though… that’s a bit of a different story now…😞)
And reconsider if you want to have kids given the worst is almost certainly yet to come.
Last year at this time I had survived driving home from the Oregon Coast through a hell of a snowstorm in Portland with freezing rain to make it back to snowmageddon in Vancouver just in time for Xmas. This year I’m kinda of happy for rain and a high of 7C today.
It’s nice to have slightly more normal weather in the valley and coast, but the lack of mountain snow is concerning.
While it’s not unusual in an el nino year we weren’t really bolstered by heavier snow years beforehand.
Next summer has a good chance to be very interesting.
You wouldn’t happen to be taking a picture of a screen from a gasoline-powered car, are you?
Quit your performative bullshit. This is one of the few instances where accusing someone of “virtue signalling” is completely valid.
Your life is carbon intensive too. Stop looking down at others.
Gas cars contribute for sure, but so do electric cars, heating houses, manufacturing, you name it. If everyone switched to riding bicycles tomorrow it wouldn’t make a huge difference. I’d like to see something like that happen over time, sure, but in this case you’re wrong to accuse OP of causing climate change (assuming you’re one of the anti-car bunch that’s everywhere on Lemmy. Sorry if I’m wrong about that).

I’m not an anti-car person. I also understand that we live in the world we are presented with, and there is a significant systemic oil culture that is difficult and expensive to not consume. I just thought this photo was a little ironic.
I bet you’re fun at parties.
That’s mean 😐
VAI BRAZIL NUMERO UNO 🏆🥇🥇☝️☝️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷Vamos todos morrer cozidos nessa merda
Even in winter you’ll hardly ever see snow anywhere in Brazil yet our christmas decorations would make you think this is Northern Canada lol
Here in Brazil, June is the cold month, and December, the hot month. So Christmas here is naturally warm/hot.
