    The measuring station in question is at the Mo i Rana airport, which is at Røssvoll, not Storforshei.

    As someone from the village of Røssvoll who’s biggest enemy is Storforshei I am very offended by this misattribution! There’s almost 3 whole km between these two places!

    Also tfw the first time my random small area of middle of nowhere Norway is mentioned is when I’m dying from overheating.

      Nevermind, I looked into this. It is some unofficial measuring station and not an official station (which the one at Røssvoll is)

        I like that when you come back with more accurate information it’s to dunk on the illegitimacy of your rival towns weather station.

      Mo I Rana doesn’t exist. It’s a fasade put up to hide the government facilities from people on the train. I only knew one dude from Mo i Rana and he was definitely a robot.

        That would explain why the town has so many people employed by the government.

      Crazy, I’m in the Southern California high desert and it’s been hotter where you are than where I am. That’s not supposed to happen.
