It isn't cold. The weather just is miserable. But the average temperatures are still pretty high and way higher than in a bad summer in the 80ies. While I didn't especially appreciate the weather here this year, my plants have been growing like hell, they like the wet and not too cold.

It IS cold compared to the last 20 years AND to other regions in Europe. Can you please stop spreading lies with "it is not cold". Get your facts straight before you post anecdotes that your plants are growing "like hell". https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/german-2021-wheat-crop-to-fall-3.6-after-adverse-weather-ministry-2021-08-25 https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/german-2021-wheat-crop-to-fa...

  The articles doesn’t say the weather is cold. It says that the weather has been highly variable.

  Compared to 1961-1990, June and July were pretty warm. The harvest has been bad due to the rain, a few weeks ago they were expecting an above average harvest. https://www.dwd.de/DE/presse/pressemitteilungen/DE/2021/20210629_deutschlandwetter_juni2021_news.html https://www.dwd.de/DE/presse/pressemitteilungen/DE/2021/2021... https://www.dwd.de/DE/presse/pressemitteilungen/DE/2021/20210730_deutschlandwetter_juli2021_news.html https://www.dwd.de/DE/presse/pressemitteilungen/DE/2021/2021...

    But you're right about August, which was 0.1C colder than the reference period, for the first time since 2014. Though first and foremost, it was very rainy. The report was released today: https://www.dwd.de/DE/presse/pressemitteilungen/DE/2021/20210830_deutschlandwetter_august2021_news.html?nn=16210 https://www.dwd.de/DE/presse/pressemitteilungen/DE/2021/2021...

  Stop accusing other HN posters of "spreading lies", when they are, in fact, looking at the data and arriving at conclusions that differ from yours. Your approach may involve looking at data, but your shrillness shows that your attitude to understanding that data is unscientific.
