May to September, not a cloud in the sky, scorching hot, drought conditions, Imagine if were lucky enough to have another one of those, the media will have a field day. We ad propers summers when I were a lad . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim117 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I remember that Padders, standpipe warnings and all. Remember the plague of greenfly and then the plague of ladybirds to eat them? I used to love the proper summer thunder storms that would clear the air after a really humid spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butlers Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 1976 is the the hottest summer even though the record highest temp has been beaten several times recently. The Met office has the 11th warmest years since 1884 happening since 2002. 1976 is not in that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Met office has the 11th warmest years since 1884 happening since 2002. 1976 is not in that list. That is just weather though. A countries weather can change at any time. I was reading a couple of days ago about the change in deep ocean currents that COULD make the UK much colder. Just a news story, not buying myself a warm coat just yet Remember the movie, "The Day After Tomorrow," in which a catastrophic series of global disasters strike after climate change causes the world's ocean currents to stop? Well, new research reveals Earth's major ocean currents are slowing down, and though the consequences will not be as immediate or dramatic as in the Hollywood fiction, there are real-world impacts for global weather patterns and sea levels. Cold Atlantic 'blob' puzzles scientists The slowdown of ocean circulation is directly caused by warming global temperatures and has been predicted by climate scientists. https://edition.cnn.com/2021/03/02/world/climate-change-ocean-currents-weakening/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 41 years since NOAA's satellites have ben monitoring temperatures and polar ice, the warming anomaly for the Earth's lower trophosphere (which is where you and I live) is 0.2 degrees. No warming over the last 5 years. And that is scientifically satatistically insignificant, with no marhin of error given, Can you do the math for the next 50 years?
