I've never gotten sick in the summer, colds appear in the fall though, around october when it starts getting cold out.
I seem to get sick after returning from winter vacations back to the cold here. Three times that has happened to me where I wasn't sick on the trip and within a week of returning I have slight cold symptoms.
I've caught a cold in 40C heat before. I used to be sick all the time as kid in Melbourne, usually in winter, but often in summer aswell. The skin-penetrating damp winters (and the shoulder seasons 90% of the time) there are a germ paradise, the never ending cold, wet gloom, absolute hell for an asthmatic. And the incessent bipolar wankfest doesn't allow the body to adjust to the seasons. ****ing dog's crap laden ass of a climate.
As I get older though, I am rarely ever sick, last time I was genuinely sick was in 2014 I think. Since moving away from that subarctic overpopulated and over-regulated abyss, my nails and hair grow like bacteria in the tropics, even when I drink like a drunken sailor. Sunshine, warmth and clear air FTW! Only caveat is I have to wear sunglasses and a hat as the sun here roasts you for real. I enjoy wearing hats though as I can't be ****ed doing my hair for something as simple as going for a walk or a drive to the bottle shop.

I have an interesting inquiry - what's the coldest temperature it's ever snowed? I know when it gets extremely cold, it's often "too dry to snow" so I think this is interesting. I've seen some OBS from Alaskan stations with "light snow" at temps of -40 F or -50 F. I wonder if it's ever snowed at -70 F? -80 F? I would imagine it would be very thin snowflakes.
What place has the highest diurnal range in Europe?
I don't know, but I'll start off with Salamanca, avg high 18.7C and avg low 5.6C so a range of 13.1C. July has the biggest diurnal range with 30.0/12.9.
Presumably it's got to be somewhere dry, high up, and in southern Europe. I think I've seen somewhere like León record days with 28/0 in spring before, but the averages for the year are only 16.7/5.5.

Good question. I'm waiting for this board's experts. Lol
-257F on Mt Owen, near Castlederp I believe is the lowest temperature for recorded snow.

Salamanca seems like a good contender, Badajoz too with 23.8/10.3
