@CryptoFructo @ABridgen No it isn’t normal. It’s the hottest recorded June temperature since records began. That is the exact opposite of normal. Do you have a point to make?

I remember the psychologist Chase Hughes saying if they use the word 'unprecedented' it's a psyop...
Surely we have had these temperatures before and 'unprecedented' is a lie?
Wikipedia says:
*35.9 °C (96.6 °F), recorded at Cheltenham, Gloucestershire on 3 July 1976*
Today
Cardiff is 32 degrees and London is 35 degrees.
Tomorrow may reach 34 or 35 but not forecast to reach 36 degrees...according to BBC weather forecast.

@tonyvtree it's quite cool considering where the weather station is placed. you climate scammers need locking up.

@CryptoFructo @ABridgen I didn’t say the measurements weren’t accurate, I said they weren’t standardised. There are worldwide guidelines to ensure fair comparisons set by the WMO. Look up Stephenson screens, height rules (1.25m). There is no point comparing temperatures taken under different standards.
English

@CryptoFructo @ABridgen Met office have official sites to measure weather data. Centre court at Wimbledon isn’t one of them. Measurements without standards are pointless.

@bloody_scandal @ABridgen the 2022 "record" was near the runway at RAF Coningsby
English

@ABridgen In fact, it was 2022 according to Grok. It was roasting hot in St Katherine Docks, Wapping.

@FuManChuCaChu @PigFaece @volcaholic1 don't talk shit, temperatures reported back then were always air temps. they switched to ground temps recently to push the climate scam. you know this
English

@PigFaece @CryptoFructo @volcaholic1 That's the temperature ON THE COURT! Can you read? It wasn't reported to be 40C, because funnily enough, it didn't reach 40C. Have you had some sort of head injury?

@JhonnyW72243348 @PigFaece @MrMatthewTodd @markgoldbridge omg the ice caps are melting. get to jail you disgusting climate scammer

English

@PigFaece @MrMatthewTodd @markgoldbridge R u really living in this world or living in ur parallel world?? World is fucking counting its days and this stupid is busy in his own dreamland.
English

@CryptoFructo @PigFaece @volcaholic1 It's the temperature on the court. It literally says it in black and white! Same as hot days inside football stadiums. It's always hotter. The actual temperature was nowhere near 40C, otherwise those temperatures would have been reported. It's not difficult is it!
English

@FuManChuCaChu @PigFaece @volcaholic1 ground temps are often over 50C. since when did ppl report ground temps? This was the air temp in summer 76.
English

@PigFaece @volcaholic1 That was the temperature on the court you fucking idiot, not the actual air temperature. Take a temperature reading on centre court this week and it will be over 110F+.
June 1976 was nowhere near as hot as the weather this week.
English

@Nagu2023 @PigFaece @US_Stormwatch it neans that 50 years later with CO2 50% higher the temperatures are lower.
English

@PigFaece @US_Stormwatch And how many days of tropical heat annually did they have back then?
English

@vorlon1812 @PigFaece @US_Stormwatch only by putting thermometers next to the runway at Heathrow or amongst acres of tropical greenhouses at Kew gardens
English

@PigFaece @US_Stormwatch And people are still talking about it 50 years later. We've been getting these sorts of temps every year recently

@itslolright @boriquagato @Devon_Eriksen_ they are high end. round numbers at the extreme end of the scale give a good perspective on everythng in between. like water freezing at 0C and boiling at 100C
English

@CryptoFructo @boriquagato @Devon_Eriksen_ Yes but very few eat 2.2lb of steak in one go, very few are 6'-7", and very few houses are 3200+ sf. Your examples make the point that nice round metric numbers are not typical human scale.
English

Okay, time to explain the Imperial system, the metric system, and why attempts to replace either with the other are all retarded.
They have two different purposes.
The metric system is designed around precise measurement of objects. Its goal is to make engineering and scientific calculations simple.
The Imperial system is designed around humans. Its goal is to make calculation unnecessary.
100 degrees is really hot. 0 degrees is really cold. Anything that starts with a 5 is cool, anything that starts with an 8 is warm. No computation.
6 feet is tall, 5 feet is short.
100 pounds is light, 200 pounds is substantial, 300 pounds is heavy.
A 1000 square foot house is small, a 2000 square foot house is medium, a 3000 square foot house is large.
1 mile is a short walk, 2 miles is a medium walk, after that it takes a while.
1 acre of land is a homestead, 10 acres is an estate, 100 acres and up is a ranch or a farm.
Do you see now why it is so strange and awkward to convert from miles to feet?
It's because converting from miles to feet is not something you're supposed to do in the first place. Yes, they are both measures of length, so they are technically convertible, and yes, on rare occasions, you might need to do that.
But feet are for measuring humans, and things built around humans, like doorways, and mattresses. Miles are for measuring travel distance.
You wouldn't measure the distance between Seattle and Portland in feet for the same reason you wouldn't measure the distance between Tokyo and Osaka in mattress-lengths.
It would be silly.
This is why Americans so fiercely resistant to any notion of "conversion" to the metric system. Because it makes no sense. We already use the metric system for what it's good for, which is doing physics and chemistry and whatnot.
But converting everyday measurements to the metric system would be less useful, generally inconvenient, and serve no purpose other than to make petty government bureaucrats happy that everything is now tidy, orderly, and worse, three qualities that bureaucrats love.
I thought about this carefully when I wrote my first science fiction novel. In the world of the 22nd century, extraterrestrial settlers ("Orbitals") use three systems of measurement.
They measure themselves in feet, inches, and pounds.
They measure the spacecraft and habitats they build in meters and centimeters, grams and kilograms.
And they measure space travel distances in light-seconds and light-minutes.
Each system has its own natural scale.
The sole exception to this is when Marcus doses himself with drugs for high-g resistance, Miranda objects that he has taken too much, and Marcus responds by stating his mass... in kilograms.
Why?
Because they're talking about drug doses, a engineering measurement. Drugs are dosed in milligrams per kilogram.
So, yes, the Imperial system makes perfect sense when you understand what it's for, and no, we ain't changing.
And, as a general rule, when an entire civilization of smart people does something for centuries, and it makes no sense to you, they're probably not being silly.
It's more likely there's something you don't know.
NOBUNAGA🇯🇵🏯_夏樹蒼依@japan_nobunaga
Genuine question for Americans 📏 Miles, feet, inches, pounds, ounces, gallons… how do you keep them ALL straight? In Japan it's just meters and kilograms. Done. Be honest — do you actually KNOW how many feet are in a mile? 😂 No Googling. Drop your guess + your state.
English

@boriquagato @Devon_Eriksen_ bollocks. a kg of steak, 2 metres tall, 300 sq metre house etc etc all make sense
English

exactly correct. everyhting in the imperial system is "about how much of something you'd use."
pint? about what you'd drink. pound, half, or quarter pound? about what you'd eat. yard? about 1 stride. temperature: all you really care about is the front number. 50's vs 80's.
the brits take this further with "stone" whgich translates to "about a weight class."
the impreial units use bases like 16 oz so they are highly divisible in halves. (same reason time uses base 60 and 24) metric sucks this way.
400 g steak is just "meh"
