In Absence of True Seasons maybe it's a case of waiting for El Niño to completely fade? Then hopefully a shift to dryer conditions will occur. The warmer ssts of recent times I'm sure won't help though.
Didn't realise until lately just how much denial is still out there.
This was an article in fb that got over 1000 laughing emojis. With one comment in the comment section getting over 400 likes. Really makes me angry seeing this type of denial.
ANYWEATHER To your little dig at C02 levels. Its 0.04% actually. Such a small percentage but without it earths average temperature would be around minus 18c. Shows how sensitive the atmosphere is to co2.
One of the things I liked about autumn was the anticipation of the forthcoming winter. Cant even have that anymore. The only anticipation I have during autumn these days is how bloody crap winter will likely be , not much fun. Lol.
Got interested in the weather in the first place when I was a kid growing up in the 80s due to the winter season. Nowadays even weeks before the end of winter I often look forward to spring due to the lack of wintery type weather during winter. Our winters have become so bland and boring overall. I have lost alot of faith in winters at this stage. But I will still hope beyond hope that going into next winter and any winter that it might deliver something even though my expectations will be very low.
Would April 06 - April 07 be one? April 06 I think was pretty chilly overall , I think more so the first half with some pretty harsh frosts about. April 07 was the warmest on record at that time.
The biggest problem for those that deny climate change is a deep mistrust of politicians and the media on any issue. Unfortunately climate change is a victim of this mistrust. The more evidence that is given the more they see it as more lies and a kind of dogma and anyone who believes it is being brainwashed etc. I think the recession over a decade ago is partly responsible for mistrust. The richer getting richer poor getting poorer. Since then the cost of living gone up aswell etc. From that point of view I can understand their mistrust. They see it as a form of control.
Then there is their old argument that climate has always changed and that humans aren't responsible for the current situation.
There are plenty of deniers out there. Any fb articles I see on climate change, the comments sections are filled with deniers comments calling it all bs an agenda etc etc. Same on YouTube videos on the subject.
