Blow! Blow even tougher! Blow that hot air to eastern Europe and we will share ours -15° air with you!
I live in a deep blue zone, and would be happy to exchange some heat with you.
It's currently -23C here.
I'm in the yellow bit at the top of Tassie, we got sick of living in the red bit and the worlds population seems intent on making it even redder. 21c max oredicted for today, 25c tonorrow. The warers of the Bass Strait take 10-15c off the air coming down from Victoria.
This might be the coldest summer Australia has for the next 500 years :)
That's not true! The US is the hottest country right now!
