RECORD AUGUST CHILLS IN THE BALKANS

While the Western half of Europe has witnessed a hot summer, the opposite has been true across the East.

Continuing that trend, the Balkans and also much of Central-Eastern Europe, as well as Southern Italy, have endured very cool and rainy conditions this week.

With a high of just 15.3C (59.5C) on Tuesday, the Slovak capital of Bratislava–serving as just one example–logged its lowest daily high in the month of August since 2010.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

So, it's wicked cold in Antartica during the Southern Hemisphere's Winter?

... and, it only been 12 years since Bratislava was this cold in August.

An ice age in the Balkans would be an improvment.  We're still picking up the pieces after Archduke Franz Ferdinand's assassination in Sarajevo in 1914.

What happens in the Balkans doesn't stay in the Balkans.
"Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it’s entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." - Alan Simpson, Frontline Video Interview
