The headline of the weather video says Heatwave bringing the hottest temperatures in years.
How many years? A century? Living memory? A quarter century (which is longer than living memory for most journalists, by the way)?
Two years. Which means it did not get this hot last year.
It’s the reverse Wobegon effect (where all the kids are above average). Everything must be the mostest, the extremist, the most estest, in history, especially in the news.
