Believe it or not but currently it's winter in the northern hemisphere. So definitely no heat wave at the moment, though during this winter there were only maybe 3 or 4 days of snow and the coldest period is almost over...
That is not a hell of a lot. Two years ago, Cologne (~300 kilometers from my place) had 82 days of snow. (Note: That was not the winter of 09/10 or 10/11, just the whole year 2010.)

OT: ~60°C while I was sleeping in a tent due to being drunk during a festival in mid-summer. (35°C+ that day)
I think the warmest day in my region in the last few years was 39°C.
Hottest period was when I was on vacation in Turkey for two weeks. 37-42°C each day.
