X axis: temperature anomaly, y axis: precipitation anomaly.
Years from 1950 until 2022, it can be clearly seen that 2022 is an extreme outlier in terms of high temperature and low rain level.
All points represent the first 6 months of each year.
So, by a ***VERY*** large margin, this is the hottest and driest year since at least 1950 for Italy.
18/22 of the >=2000 years onwards above the “0”-x-axis
choices of the past 80 years catching up in real time
What is the anomaly in regard to?
Is the center 0/0 the average of all years from 50-22?
Or does that “rispetto alla climatologia” mean the center is the average of 81-10?
How will this affect Italy’s gas consumption? Currently the EU’s [gas reserves](https://agsi.gie.eu/historical/eu) are growing as if NS1 wasn’t closed. Is the demand lower?

Can we go back to the summer of 69? 🎵
Yup. We’re fucked.
