While the western and northern parts of Germany are experiencing a totally disappointing September with a monthly maximum temperature of only 22C/71F and daily afternoons in the low 60s, southern Bavaria has just hit another crazy all-time-high for mid September of 34C/93F! Over 32C/90F were reached in several stations on Thursday, along with a stormy FOEHN wind. Incredible considering that in my region (350 miles away) the heatings have been constantly turned on since the beginning of September.
