      If it’s usual what’s the point? These named heat waves are far from usual. You name dangerous and exceptional phenomena.

        Well, that’s exactly the point. We keep seeing these heatwave headlines every year, so is it really that exceptional? In any case, you’re right about the harm aspect though, so in that sense rainy autumns don’t really fit the description.

          They’re becoming normal yes, but they’re still exceptional. Most people were born with a very different weather.
