This summer is the coolest summer you'll experience in the rest of your life.
Nah. Climate change doesn't mean everything is just going to keep heating up. Like for my location, this summer is cooler than the last few years.
Hell, in a few years we could be talking about Hawaiian blizzards
Yeah, I have the windows open right now and yesterday I wore a sweatshirt. Its usually 110+ right now.
so basically, the distribution of heat is less even than before
Yes. The average temperature of the globe is higher, but global warming is not applied evenly and the chaos caused to global weather currents does actually cause some regions to get colder.
It's more that climate is the long-term average, while weather is the variation around the average. So while there is an trend in the average temperature, the variation means that there will still be hotter and cooler periods.
On average, it will be.
Just happened in the north of Spain.
Nah, that'll be 2026-2027 some time. The overall trend takes a decade or so to exceed the smaller scale ~3yr oscillations.
