It's funny because here in Austria right now in August I need my sweater in the morning. Very much not normal. (Not that I mind it being cool, but it's worrying.)

The idea that this goes against climate change rather than being a symptom of it is rooted in the outdated and oversimplified idea that everything everywhere would get slowly hotter without much other appreciable effects. This is why the term "global warming" fell out of favor with climate scientists a long time ago.

Nah, I'm well aware that this is a symptom of climate change, hence my worry. I see reports that nordic countries get ridiculously hot as well. Weather everywhere is shifting around in unpredictable ways. You didn't see me call it "global warming", did you?

I just hate sweltering hot weather, so perversely I like the result of an autumny August, but this weather is very out of wack.

Ok yeah I was just commenting in general because this sentiment is shockingly common on social media.
