Climate is what you expect and weather is what you get, but climate change is increasingly changing what we get, even locally. Here is where the temperatures fell in the 1940-2023 distribution for Hamburg, Germany. Almost a quarter exceeds the 90th percentile and can be considered extreme. 🤒

Looking at the region of Northern Europe its somewhere between local and global and a bit more than a third of the days exceeds the 90th percentile.
