This is the earliest Easter since 1818. Easter can fall between March 22nd and April 25th.

And I'll bet the final March average temperature across the UK will be above average (as were November, December, January and February).

It's not 'Global Warming', it's Climate Change.

While the overall trend is towards warming, the great deal of disruption and dislocation with come from the fibrillation and arrhythmia of 'Normal' weather patterns.

Extreme fluctuations of temperature and rain fall can average out to Normal.

However, it's alot different experience to have 2 weeks of 100 degree(F) heat wave followed by 2 weeks of zero degree(F) freezing. The Average is 50 degrees(F)

It will feel alot different than 4 weeks of 50 degree (F) weather.

This is what is coming. The heat part will be the least of our problems.

How about 2 years of no rain at all followed by 2 years of torrential flooding.

The 'Average' over 4 years is 'Normal' rainfall, Not.

If climate change deniers (mostly rightwingnutters) what to see an example of real world conservative business models response to the weather fluctuations coming our way, just give a good gander to the insurance industry. They are bleeding from weather pattern losses that were based on old outdated actuarial tables that had 100 year storms only happening every 100 years. Those same storms are happening once a decade.

Does this make those same storms 10 year storms now?

Inflation in weather patterns?

Reminds me of the bumper sticker I just saw:

The Quarter is the new Nickel
