And yet it will probably be the coolest year for the rest of our lives.
To be fair, I don’t think so, there will probably years that still be relatively cold or even colder than previously. Climate change is about extremes getting more extreme.
Yes but the overall trend is warmer.
The likelihood of a colder year than previous ones will shrink further and further.
You’ll absolutely be getting a few weeks of unbelievable cold throughout the years, though - as in actual snow during summer and heat strokes during winter.
:(
Don’t worry, sometimes there will be freak years where ocean currents reverse or something and there are widespread cold snaps and crops die

Storms were also way more brutal than usual.
This was not a good year for me to pick up Kim Stanley Robinson’s “Ministry of the Future” book

This summer was very wet and cold with few sunny days and far more rainstorms than I’m used to for summer. Perhaps other places found it hotter but for me it was an unseasonably cool summer.
It definitely was hotter here. We’re a week into September and it’s still going to hit 109F today. That’s absurd. Thankfully we’re FINALLY going to start cooling off tomorrow, when it will ‘only’ be 98F.
Christ, and here I thought working in a 95° factory was bad… 110° is insane especially if you have the humidity we do…
We “cooled off” today, down to 85° and 80% humidity… nothing like suffocating at work lol

Yeah actually September and July were quite hot for me too. I guess the cold August was just so bizarre for me that I’ve been focusing on it.
I’m in Florida and it’s been fucking hell. Even more so than usual. And now a second hurricane is on the way…

Jokes on you, I’m in Australia and have been freezing my arse off all year.
That’s because your thermometer is upside-down. Try tur ing it right way round, then see how cold it is.
I will happily trade you
Australia’s law enforcement might be even worst than USA’s
We’re talking about weather but alright
?
No.
No fucking way is it even remotely close.
Do some research… Its pretty bad there too
I am Australian. I know what it’s like here, it’s typical bastard cop shit at a level comparable to NZ/Can/UK, which is leagues away from how fucked the US is.
The US only shoot and kill about 1000 people per year
Remind me to never ask you about the weather
Here in Portugal it felt less hot than the last couple of years. Still hotter than what it used to be when I was younger.

If Steiner attacks this heat, everything will be alright.
I’m actually lucky, it was a very mild summer this year.
I know there’s big trouble ahead but currently the summers here have just been getting better and better. Talk about conflicting feelings.
