They can do amazing things with "averages" 🤓
We did have a few days of really high temperatures for this time if year, due to the sun's activity, as evidenced during the obsession with Aurora Borealis days .. maybe that added to the "averages" being so out of wack with our experience.
Also, we Brits have a tendency to remember the worst of times, rather than basking in the glory of the best of times .. maybe that's adding to our distrust of "averages" too.
But what do I know .. 🌞😎🌧️
