![](http://static.dyp.im/W5VJ4EcsM2/5bd6271b4e4b3324ef7892b5a5b3cbb1.jpg) Snow fell on highway 7 over Hardangervidda on Saturday. Kari Varberg (50), who owns and operates Dyranut Fjellstov, sat at the breakfast table when it started snowing on Saturday morning. Shortly after, she was called upon to take care of two British campers who ended up in the ditch. As long Varberg can remember, there has not been snow on the mountain lodge at the end of June. Security Operator Morten Hansen at the Traffic surveillance reported on slush and snowy roads at 800 meters on the Hardangervidda Saturday morning. Almost below freezing: We have a station at Finse, where the temperature is 0.9 degrees (33.6F), says Halldis Berge, the local meteorologist. According to the Norwegian met office, temperatures should normally be around 5C (41F). Not since NVE measurements began in 1971 has more snow been registered midway through June. More snow is in the forecast.

Perhaps start of autumn and winter will be similarly advanced? The advancing has in recent years in practice equalled a wet autumn with storms and floods, and a late start with false starts for the winter.

Mr. Cutty,
Climatologists everywhere (at least 97% of them) agree that the White Sea is the canary in the coal mine of both AGW and Arctic amplification.Your map proves their point.

Met Office are yet to update the CET data for the end of June, but it's looking like the coolest first half to a year for almost 30 years. Averages so far this year: Average CET to May: 5.45 Normal CET to May: 6.46 Anomaly to May: -1.01 Provisional CET anomaly (up to 27th June): -0.90°C![](http://static.dyp.im/t0tr9RbFBT/large/e3ba9ee88784d68274838f385591dcde.jpg) ________________________________________________________________ Edit: MO just released updated temp data: ![](http://static.dyp.im/AdTBjrKb4Q/27baf02c7b03de159f0b172490229308.jpg) > Coldest start of the year since 1986. > Joint coldest March-June (with 1891) since 1888 > Joint 25th coldest March-June on the entire CET record

From the reports of the 1920's, this looks like a repeat Numerouno.

"Record-Breaking Heat to Ease " www.weather.com/news/weather-forecast/extreme-heat-southwest-120-degrees-20130626"At Death Valley National Park, the official high of 129 degrees at Furnace Creek Sunday established a new June record for that notoriously toasty site. "One could almost think we're not cooling at all. One of the greatest heat waves in North American history peaked on Sunday and Monday, but will still bring some of the hottest temperatures ever recorded to portions of the Western U.S. during the afternoon today. The extraordinary heat wave, caused by an unusually extreme standing wave pattern in the jet stream, brought Earth's highest June temperature ever recorded on Sunday, June 30, when the mercury hit 129.2°F (54.0°C) in Death Valley, California. (my bolding) wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/comment.html?entrynum=2451Sounds like a repeat of the Great Russian Heatwave of 2010 to me.
