I thought the same, why is he's reporting a heat wave and advising to wear light clothes when he's wearing a dark & hooded jacket? I had to look up who he is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankie_MacDonald Edited September 4, 20232 yr by Mike A

They still do it but I've been away for the last 65 years so I don't know much about it now. Here is a recording of how it used to be. Recent recordings can be seen on Youtube: Dugald Walker

On a similar note, I believe that it was some UK weather reporters, or maybe another European country, who got caught displaying heat maps with "angry" red areas where the temps were highest. The kicker is that the same and even higher temps had been reported in past years with only yellow coloring and less drama. I think this can also be found on youtube. Weather reporters also frequently display the heat *indexes*, or "real feel" temps, which are higher than the actual temperature. These bozos are really trying hard to fool everybody, but luckily there are enough good folks out there who catch this stuff and publicize it. I no longer trust any weather agencies when it comes to temperatures.
