From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

Another step towards climate fraud:

We’re having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave. Also a temperate heat wave and an Arctic heat wave, with temperatures reaching the high 80s in northern Norway. Climate change is already doing immense damage, and it’s probably only a matter of time before we experience huge catastrophes that take thousands of lives.

Sheer fraud!
According to the Evening Standard, temperatures in Tromso reached 30C, or 86F:

Temperatures in the 80s are perfectly normal in the north of Norway, such as Tromso:

And there is no evidence that these sort of temperatures are getting more common.
According to Wikipedia, the record high temperature at Tromso was 86.4F, set in July 1972.
The rest of Krugman’s article is just a boring diatribe against the Republicans and the Supreme Court, which explains perfectly why Krugman is lying through his back teeth.
… and they accuse us of cherry picking.
Two days in the month get to 30°C, but over 20 days in the month struggle to reach 15°C, that’s climate change folks! ™…

The month of June…
I’m from Regina, Saskatchewan, southern prairies of Canada. Every evening I watch the weather and rarely are are summer temperatures record breaking. The records are still held from the 1930’s and the 19teens. But my betters always inform me that that is weather not climate. But when it happens year in and year out I think it is climate.
That is pretty much the definition of climate. Weather that happens year in and year out.
” Krugman is lying through his back teeth”
in briefly alluding to a Norwegian heat wave. The article tries to prove the lying by quoting newspaper articles about the heat wave in Norway.
“According to Wikipedia, the record high temperature at Tromso was 86.4F, set in July 1972.”
Yes. But the point of the newspaper articles was that this heat wave was a record for June. Last May, Wiki said the June record for Tromso was 29.5C. Now it is 29.9C (85.8F).
Since 1949 the highest temperature recorded at Oslo Blindern weather station in Norway was 94.28 F.

Odds are a higher temperature was recorded in 1922 when all kinds of record highs were recorded in the Arctic circle but I can’t seem to find that data for Norway.
Just two years ago Norway recorded its coldest summer in almost 60 years.

“You have a million people on this planet who call themselves economists. How many people understood the risks of the system [before the crisis]? … Paul Krugman was not one of them.”
“Paul Krugman is a danger to society.”
“The definition of a robust society: where Paul Krugman could exist without harming others.”
― Nassim Nicholas Taleb.
Very low winter temperatures in Argentina and South Africa. It is important to note that the low minimum temperatures occur during times of high pressure over the continent.
In the UK recently, we have experienced a series of mini heat waves. They travel up from the Sahara desert. They are well defined and forecast very well. On the evening weather bulletins we are shown large areas coloured red on the maps, covering Spain then France then the UK. I have no doubt that these blobs of warm air continue north to the countries of Scandinavia.
It is lovely but one downside is that our house windows and cars get a fine layer of desert sand get covered!
I honestly can’t remember Krugman ever being correct on anything!
In 1973 I had a holiday in Norway, it was warm! In Voss I spent the day sitting in the coolest place I could find, The Stave Church. Outside was over 90F, inside about 75F. On another occasion spent the night on the deck of a ferry, far to warm in a cabin.
Global warming? Nah!
