Alarmist Fail: Not A Single Heat Wave At Cologne-Bonn This Summer

An analysis of data shows that the Cologne-Bonn airport hasn’t had a single real heat wave so far this summer, as was the case in most places in Germany. [emphasis, links added]
“Experts” predicting a “summer of hell” are proven wrong.
Firstly, there is no standardized international definition of the term heat wave. Definitions are often based on a combination of percentile-based threshold values.
For example, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) defines a heat wave as a period during which the daily maximum temperature exceeds for more than five consecutive days the maximum normal temperature by five degrees Celsius.
