Early Friday morning (July 10) parts of Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany, Switzerland, Scotland, England, Austria and the Czech Republic saw surface frost – even down to the lower elevations (Belgium is hardly a mountainous region).
German site Wetter24 twittered here a map depicting the frosty areas gripping this 10th of July, 2015. Also see map here.
Swiss meteorologist Jörg Kachelmann here supplies a link showing a German video reporting that the German Eifel region woke up to early this morning. At the 1:50 mark the video reports:
We saw fields that were snow-white. That on the tenth of July I have never seen before. My colleague Fabian had also never seen this before. It just looked wonderful. We just thought that indeed we are not in autumn or spring; we are actually in July.”
Apparently the “greenhouse effect” of atmospheric CO2 was unable to trap the heat and prevent frost from forming at ground level.
