Is Italy cold and rainy 10 months a year?

It would be interesting to get data on what happens to coffee kiosk sales
in hot weather in Seattle. (I mean, not necessarily hot by your standards,
but honestly in Seattle if it gets to 90, with say 15% humidity, some
people of conspicuously nordic heritage, or perhaps excess natural
insulation, will be quite uncomfortable.) Cold dairy+coffee concoctions?
Straight espresso? I bet they're as busy as ever in hot weather. We
don't make a line for the espresso stand because we need a latte to
warm up! We're into coffee, if you didn't know. And of course maybe
slightly addicted to caffeine.
