A sunny weekend. With a catch?
Germany may have a milder version of Europe's heatwave this weekend, but Saturday mFRR- is high enough to give us pause.
I wrote last time how this keeps re-occurring to me as a simple motto.
Here’s a consequence:
A long post does not only ask for attention. It asks for a block of attention.
If you can’t find that block, the post becomes a deferred task.
Deferred tasks become backlog.
Backlog becomes guilt or avoidance.
Avoidance makes the subscription feel less valuable.
So we want shorter formats to complement the longer posts.
Heat is in the European news.
Western Europe is moving into the first real warm spell of the summer season. France, Spain and Portugal are the louder story; Germany is not the epicentre.
That makes Germany more interesting, not less.
We are not looking at an emergency weather setup. We are looking at how a warm, bright weekend translates into market shape.
Warm, bright, dry, low wind: open-Meteo has maximum temperatures up to about 30.6 degrees C on Saturday and 31.3 degrees C on Sunday across a sample of German stations.
Shortwave radiation averages about 26.8 kWh/m2 on Saturday and 26.2 kWh/m2 on Sunday. Cloud cover is low on Saturday, about 16% on average.
