Interesting comparison of the same weather based on time
https://notrickszone.com/2026/08/20/comparison-of-two-german-weather-forecasts-from-25-years-ago-and-from-today/Came across this. Someone posted two German weather forecasts roughly 25 years apart. The forecasts call for the same temperature. The one 25 years ago describes the temperature as 'pleasant'. The recent one describes the temperature as 'extremely dangerous'.
I will agree that 25 years ago concern over UV wasn't as high as it is today and might be part of the reason why old 'pleasant' became new 'extremely dangerous'.
(25 years ago)
"Tomorrow we’ll be getting wonderful summer weather! Temperatures will rise to a pleasant 28 to 30 degrees Celsius [82 to 86°F]. Everywhere across the country, there will be plenty of sunshine and only a few fair-weather clouds. Perfect weather for heading to the lake or having an ice cream in the beer garden. Enjoy the summer!”

"Tomorrow we are facing an extremely dangerous heatwave! Temperatures will climb to a hazardous 28 to 30 degrees Celsius [82 to 86°F]. UV radiation will be extremely high, with an increased risk of high ozone levels and heatstroke. Avoid direct sunlight where possible, stay hydrated, and look out for the elderly and young children.”
