Beyond global "warming..."

there's "warming..." then there's "heating..."
Temperatures in this Eastern Hudson Bay community hit 36.6 C (98F) on Monday, making Kuujjuaraapik [above the Arctic Circle] the hottest place in Quebec and breaking the previous record of 29.4 C (85F), set in 1969.

But Tuesday was even hotter. The day’s high climbed to 37 C (99F), breaking the previous record high of 28.3 C (83F) set in 1998.

These temperatures were much higher than the normal temperature range of around 15 C (59F).
