Statistics
If you remember there have been some dubious (even in my opinion as a skeptic) murmurs about the Arctic being unusually cold. The UAH data for June (yes I know, the whole LT, not just surface 2m) confirms that the Arctic as a whole is not unusually cold at +1.01C anomaly, despite DMI indicating that the high Arctic surface temperatures are about 1C colder than average. That pretty much agrees with climate reanalyzer which also shows it is not unusually cold as a whole. And there is nothing unusually slow about the summer melt either.

Meanwhile in the USA during a monstrous Heat Dome with daily temps over 40C:
“PJM grid was kept afloat Thursday almost entirely by natural gas, nuclear, and coal. As of Friday morning, the three fuel sources were supplying more than 94% of the grid’s total power.”
“…the takeaway is clear: fossil fuels and nuclear power are keeping the lights on, AC units humming, and preventing rolling blackouts.”

Don’t know if the Ukraine/Monaco bombing has been mentioned.
Main suspect will have trouble hiding. The bloke seemed to have enemies on every side in governments, business, and crimeland.
