You should expect your temperature scale to be different by 1 from the picked value, most of the time, due to the climate. If you have seen no Cold provinces in 18 turns, then you did forget to take the scale (and with Cold 2, you should have at least Cold 1 even in summer, and Cold 2/3 in the other seasons).

If a province gets 15 unrest per turn, you should search for Blood sites: only one site gives that much unrest (if memory serves), and it will allow you to summon one devil per turn. 5 unrest per turn is usually a Brigand's Lair, but not always.
