Re: Is your May Extra Hot?
Quite a few Spanish around my way were complaining about the excess heat and sudden change last week, saying it was far from the norm.
When it comes on gradually ppl have a chance to acclimatise, but this caught quite a few out, incl. myself, and apparently some older ones are suffering a bit.
This trend towards little or no in-between period, (spring or autumn), seems to me to have increased in recent times and not only in Spain.
Maybe it ties in with the continued trend to more extremes of weather.

Once again little or nothing in between.

Re: Is your May Extra Hot?
Yes you definitely have, !8c was referring to February daytime this year and this week one night touched 35c at 9 30pm which we normally see in July and August. It's even hotter upstairs indoors as of course the heat rises and also comes through the roof.

Re: Is your May Extra Hot?
Come to think of it my May turned out quite a bit hotter than expected when an old Swedish flame from way back, turned up on the doorstep.
Fortunately I had her on the plane back home just before the worst of the heatwave started or I might well have been an ex-poster by now.
Hell, just noticed,that last sentence may well have given the wrong impression.
I haven't joined the 6 mile high club just yet, but I still live in hopes.
