Well, as someone living in the officially hottest city in Europe I understand their desperation to get shelter from the sun. Still idiots, though.

Is it hot there now or are you referring to when it's summer? And out of curiosity, what are the highest temperatures you Europeans get?

And living in a city where the summer is hot as ****, I also understand why they would do this.

My city has the second highest average temperatures in Europe (ranked first is actually a neighbouring city) and reaches the highest maximums in Summer. It easily gets to 40ºC in the city centre at midday, often gets to 45ºC for a few days and the historic record is crazy ****: 59 degrees downtown. Temperatures at night range between 30ºC and 40ºC. These are the hottest weeks of Summer, usually July or August depending on the year. Common sight: Abc.es And there are cold water vapour sprayers everywhere in pedestrian-only streets so people don't simply drop dead.

But southern Spain is an exception to the rest of Europe. It isn't representative of what happens up in the north past the Pyrenees.
