Irina, I am aware that it has been hot many places in this country. But the heat is not universal. For example, in New England, recent headlines have been about farmers not getting much of a hay crop because it is not sunny enough, and today's headline was about how our local apple crop has been devastated by a late frost. vnews.com/Haying-Season…

It's like a rainy coast (say Ireland) around here, but our crops aren't expecting this weather.
Also in Vermont USA, a local sweet corn farmer told me Monday that his harvest was a few weeks late due to the lack of heat.
Interestingly, I'm living on a lake in the west coast of Canada and there are many years that the water has been warmer than it is today.
That's why they went from global warming to climate change, to cover all weather changes, as if there have never been changes before.
