spiritus 69 | 645 29 May 2007 / #1Whenever I look at weather sites to prove to my friends how hot Poland can be in the summer I'm always left perplexed as to how meteorologists calculate seasonal averages.I looked at one website today and it states the average temperature in Warsaw for August is around 19 degrees celcius.......London was about 21 degrees C.
southern 74 | 7,074 29 May 2007 / #2It is because polish girls raise the temperature by 5 degrees minimum,sth that meteorologists cannot calculate.
Wroclaw 44 | 5,369 29 May 2007 / #3Two years ago we had 42 degrees. It was over two days. The last few summers have seen temps of 38/39 and even 40 degrees. No-one believes it, but it's true.
Eurola 4 | 1,902 29 May 2007 / #4Yes, the summers are pretty hot in the last decade or so in Poland. My family says so. And, they have no air-conditioning in homes or cars. It is still too expensive to have one. I understand that some official building are air conditioned.

Grzegorz_ 51 | 6,148 29 May 2007 / #8I looked at one website today and it states the average temperature in Warsaw for August is around 19 degrees celcius.......It's changing very often, so average is not so high. Last summer the whole July was over +30C but most of August was +16-18C. Besides I think that oficial temperature is in the shadow and that's average from different parts of a day.
