As the climate heats, climate scientists predict that the effects will not be smoothly spread out over time nor space. It will be lumpy. Some times and some places will see particularly increased temperatures.

So, if you live in Western Europe then start seeing a yearly heatwave with abnormal highs not as an if and as strange but rather as a when.
