Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I live north of Tokyo and the temperature here and in many other areas of Japan this summer was the highest ever recorded since recording began in the 1890s.

I live near Austin, TX. We had a record for most consecutive days over 105°F that stood for nearly 100 years. 7 consecutive days over 105°F. We beat it twice this year. 11 consecutive days each time.

Looks like the default iOS weather app.

That’s right. It’s the default weather app on iOS. Usually there’s a tile that shows you the difference of the current temperature to the average and if you tap it, there’s this graph and a nice explanation on how the data is gathered.

Excellent thanks found it!

Yeah it does doesn’t it. Can’t seem to find the average weather stats tho tbh.

Long press on the square Averages panel toward the bottom of a location

Amazing thanks x

Yeah as usual from May to October Spain is all red

Except the Canarias maybe, they should still be in their constant oceanic weather, for now 😩

Silver lining: bed bugs start to die at 45C, so climate change will likely kill off bed bugs in Spain. Hotels can simply turn off the AC and let a room bake in the sun.

Laughs in Brazilian

I feel you.

I've seen the same information two days ago, on a wheather app. Maybe it's happening worldwide?

I live in Santa Catarina btw

Wait, when did they add that!? Super cool!

For anyone else who can’t find it, it’s on the main screen, scroll down to the averages looking widget, Tap.

Equivalent Android app? I want this graph!
