I was up in Michigan for a couple of weeks and heard the most ridiculous government PSA on the radio. It started out stating that the average temperature in Michigan had risen 2 degrees (the average summer temp in Mich is around 80). It then went on in some detail about the perils (including death!) of dehydration and heat stroke and what the hapless citizens must do to prevent said death. Thank god for PSAs otherwise I'm fairly certain bodies would be stacked up in the streets
So people in Mich are in danger of dying because the average summer temp has gone from 80 to 82? It's pure, unadulterated political propaganda to feed the perception that the planet is on the verge of spontaneous combustion. BTW, being from FL I was pretty much wearing long pants and sleeves the entire visit and was quite comfortable.
