A severe heatwave gripped much of Europe on Sunday, with temperatures nearing 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit), prompting nationwide warnings, transport disruption and signs of strain on wildlife and at tourist hotspots.
The heat surge on June 21, the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere and typically the start of the three hottest months of the year, raised concerns of an early and persistent onset of extreme conditions.
For a while, and then it’ll get really cold when AMOC collapses.
From what I’ve read, not exactly.
AMOC collapse would cause weather patterns in Europe to swing wildly between scorching hot to frigid cold, causing crop/local ecosystem collapse.
So first you’re going to be really hungry, then–depending upon how long you make it–you’ll be bitterly cold or insufferably hot.
