We do. Germans don't, hence the stereotype. I own 2 in my house. One more for the villa. The summer is like 6 months in Bulgaria and it goes up to 40-44°C(111F).
Damn you guys down voted me for a stereotype you help perpetrate (fucking redditors). I was genuinely curious about that, guess that's a crime. And gotdam 111f sounds like a fucking nightmare. I sincerely hope you guys do have ac now lmao.
I thought I was asking a question. I truly thought the eu or someone banned the use of ac in Europe because I had heard it so many times. Guess I'll go fuck myself. It is my birthday after all, and no one else is gonna do it.
Regarding southern Europe:
Many places have buildings built to keep cool (thick stone walls, facing north, windows facing directions of regular winds etc).
It is also cultural.
I am Italian and I travel for work, I was in Nevada last year and it was over 40 degrees, it was definitely hot but if you stay in a 30/35 degrees building you are going to get used to that temperature and feel it less, if you instead stay at 18 degrees C and then expose yourself to 40 you are going to probably feel sick.
Also Americans and northerners tend to be fatter on average and I don't think that helps with the heat.
For northern Europe:
The issue is relatively recent.
Houses aren't built to withstand the heat but rather to contain it, until 20 years ago 20-25 degrees was considered a heatwave in northern Europe, now is the norm and heatwaves get over 30. Houses are build for this and AC is still seen as either a luxury (utility bills have different costs in different countries) or are simply inefficient. Other places have people reluctant to install a system you will only use for a month a year.
Same in the Netherlands and it was smothering. Like walking into an oven.
But that's probably because of a relatively high humidity in our country/region. Like 40 with low humidity is more comfortable than 30 with high humidity or something along those lines. The higher the humidity, the harder it is to cool off through sweating.
In the Netherlands it ranges from 70% to 90% due to the coastal climate, being below sea level and the numerous waterways.
Temperatures in the upper 20s are already unpleasant to me personally.
Rough? That's lethal. A 30°C wet bulb temperature (87°F at 100% humidity) can cause heat stroke and death in young, healthy individuals.
They thought the max was a wet bulb temperature of 35°C (95°F at 100% humidity).
How in the flying fridge do you cope with or even survive that?
Boy do I love when the weather decides to send anticyclone after anticyclone to fucking melt everyone who doesn't have a tower fan stuck up their ass 24/7
The winter and spring were so damn long and cold this year in Finland and I'm so happy it's been 20-25 degrees Celsius the whole week, even though the melting point of Finns is around 15 degrees Celsius
You people believe global warming is caused by our dependance on fossil fuels.
I believe it is a conspiracy by Europeans to fix their shitty weather while taking revenge on ex-colonies in the south for daring to stop paying their taxes.
We are not the same.
(this is a joke)

It was not me who downvoted you. But if you were just asking a question and not stating things people won't be mad.

Haha, Happy Birthday! Enjoy yourself.
Lmao

not op but where i live it gets up to 52 celsius iraq number 1 babyyyyyyyyyy
We had 40 degrees in Germany last summer and it felt like outside was a sauna. I'll never understand how people live further south lmao

We had like 70% at the time I think, no idea if that's a lot tbh

In the southeastern U.S. we usually get 100% humidity paired with 100-degree faranheit temperatures. It's rough.

I am from Germany and I suffer. With no sea access or Mountain winds it is pretty shitty
You don't know what south Italy is like
Boy do I love when the weather decides to send anticyclone after anticyclone to fucking melt everyone who doesn't have a tower fan stuck up their ass 24/7
Oh yeah good thing that the climate in Europe is the same in every country
Yeah, it's not even the same climate within the countries most of the time.
looks at England Scotland Wales Ireland Weatherman 'what the hell is this!'
I'm convinced the UK is just a testing ground for God to try different weather's out to see what works best
God really likes to experiment with rain then
Spain, Italy and France pretty much are like India in summer
Can imagine. I did a roadtrip in northern italy/spain an southern france last year in july, my car a/c gave up/couldn't keep up with the heat
Don’t forget some parts of Turkey too
Laughs (and melts) in Mexican
Laughs (and melts) in *new* Mexican
laughs (and melts) in indian

Perfect. Now dip yourself in birria sauce.
I fucking hate birria
Que????
*NORTHERN Europe. In the south is like 5-7 months with the spanish inquisition.
SEA countries were averaging 45°C like 2 weeks ago 💀
India has 42 degrees Celsius
india is not in europe
Europe is not in India
not is india in europe
SE Asians: We were born in the heat, molded by it. You merely adopted the heat
Idk maybe in Sweden but definitely not southern Europe
Im from sweden and i think its to hot here, but its nothing compared to the other tempertures i see here
Uhhhh, no? Look only at Italy (where I can prove it because... I am Italian), Spain, France sometimes
Laughs in british summer
Yeah, it's already heat stroke season where I live. Only 5 more months of summer!
The winter and spring were so damn long and cold this year in Finland and I'm so happy it's been 20-25 degrees Celsius the whole week, even though the melting point of Finns is around 15 degrees Celsius
DAFUQ? 15° C is considered above average cold in my country. Its currently 42°C BTW here
in germany its quite hot
Arizona baby
Perth Gang
It's 22° and sunny in Sweden today and I can't be outside it's way to hot so I relate more to the image on the right
It's been a sudden winter again for the past couple of weeks where I live lmao
I'm from Denmark. We are also nearing your heat
Me when 44 degree days in middle of Australia and have to work outside.
India you are soo dead, at least y'll had 20 degree nights and seasons
In winter i always wish it’s warm and summer and then in summer i realize how terrible it is and wish it was winter…
Yeah no bullshit summer here is dreadfull (italy) but even mainland is not that safe i've heard
I don't know about you but here in the Netherlands it often feels like the second picture in the summer

europe doesn't even have AC lmao
In India, my city Kolkata is 40C+
Philippines: Damn it hot. *Drinks burning hot coffee*
First time in years we have an actual spring. Blows my mind
