    With July setting a record as hottest month, expect some Dead Flowers. Instead of Sympathy for The Devil, have sympathy for people in PNW and Europe during these heat waves (here too in DC). 7/x

    Not only was July the hottest month on record, but it's been 45 years since globe had a July or a year colder than 20th century average. So you can't really say She's So Cold. 3/8
