Good luck to everyone in the heatwave, Scotland and Scandinavia look very appealing at the moment (discuss.tchncs.de)

I’ve heard air conditioning is not very common in Europe, is that the case for much of the heat wave area? Would Spain and Portugal at least typically have air conditioning?

Am Greek, most buildings and almost all businesses are air conditioned. I would expect any country neighboring Africa directly across the Mediterranean to be the same, at least in their southernmost regions

I can only speak for Germany, where it's not common at all. I wish it was.
