Today's Ten-Day Trend won't induce much ramping:

Or you can choose to be genuinely curious?

It's shirt-sleeves weather over here, today, but I wouldn't call it 'hot'! 

[Moans, ramps and banter]

Here's this week's Deep Dive; it's not exactly all that optimistic.

 overcast I get what you're saying, but my feet use even less power than your A1! 

[Moans, ramps and banter]

 Don Absolutely agree, Don!

 overcast I'm not sure you are -- solar electricity is emission free, and Toyota are developing new batteries.

 B87 I guess that's why I pay analogues no attention whatsoever: they're about useful as an igloo in the Sahara!

 jonboy I agree with you, and I think the biggest problem is that, to be an MP or a Senator, politicians -- of all colours -- need absolutely no proof of their respective knowledge in order to gain the highest office. Yet, they prattle on about all sorts of things they know sod-all about! 

[Changing Attitudes: Climate Change]

We certainly do have a problem, and powerful people are at the heart of it:

 *Stormforce~beka* A Pakamac and some galoshes? 

PS: This outfit should do it!

 Stabilo19 It's been like that for twenty years, mate. 2009, 2010 and 2013 excepted! 

In the meantime, temps are set to rise, come the weekend.

 

[Moans, ramps and banter]

 *Stormforce~beka* Hi Beka, it's still sunny (if a little hazy) over here.

1963 for me: loads of the white stuff, and thunder was more common back then, too.

[Changing Attitudes: Climate Change]

One thing that is inevitable, but not addressed by politicians, is the mass northward migration of climate refugees; if we see migration as a problem now, it's nothing to what's coming. 

I find it ironic that so many of those denying climate change are the same people who rant about immigration. How can they be so shortsighted?

[Changing Attitudes: Climate Change]

 SollyOlly No, he has hit the nail on the head. . . I simply do not know where these denialist loons are coming from.

The word PIFFLE comes to mind! 

[Moans, ramps and banter]

Not at all bad, now the cloud has moved away. I just can't remember the last time I thought 12C in March 'cold'! Back in 2013, it was more like 2! 

[Your Deepest Snow Record]

About 2 feet, back in the early 1990s, in Scotland, with a SW'erly wind.

 damianslaw The earliest sunburn I ever got was in February 1989, when I was painting my house. . . in the Scottish Highlands.

 DTHFCJ Thank goodness supporting Spurs is a family tradition, the North London connection and all that. It's almost a family tradition. . . My grandson (who's football mad) is on the books of Inverness Caledonian Thistle. And, guess who his second team is? 

[Pick your Groundhog year of weather to relive]

 DTHFCJ I was on my honeymoon back then: listening to Spurs lose, on the radio, didn't go down too well!

[Pick your Groundhog year of weather to relive]

 DTHFCJ I wouldn't be too sure about that; we got relegated in 1977! 

[Pick your Groundhog year of weather to relive]

 DTHFCJ I agree, DTHFCJ. . . Not only was 1976 the best summer I've ever known, there was more snow (not difficult) either side of it, than in any recent year.

[2023 confirmed as world's warmest year on record]

And, with 2024 looking like being even warmer, and with SSTs being irrefutably linked to hurricane formation, maybe it's time for a Cat 6?
