We are having the coolest weather in North-east Victoria that I have experienced during the previous 15 years. It makes the climate change denialists happy. Many people don't know that melting ice takes heat from it's surroundings. It is a latent heat effect. However there is only a finite amount of ice at the poles of our planet. What happens when the ice caps disappear ? Will we all be living in the tropics ?
We're having the best Memorial Day weekend for the last 21 years here in Washington State . Three clear, blue-sky days with temps around 80F and humidity around 20% and it shouldn't revert to "normal" (cloudy and 65) before Wednesday.
Our neighborhood is close to Burroughs Bay, to the south, which is about 450' deep a couple of miles off shore. Since it's primarily snow-melt runoff from the Cascades, the water stays cold all the time. By the time you're knee deep, you can't feel your feet any more. With the prevailing breezes from the south, we usually stay 3 or 4 degrees less than further inland.
Wouldn't move from here unless I'm wearing a wooden overcoat.

Perhaps this explains where the Gulf streams goes, but it is not all plain sailing it can get diverted further south during the winter months in the northern Europe and then either an artic freeze will come down from the north pole or the cold winds from Siberia might freeze G.B. ;

The forecasters weren't quite right. The warm, sunny weather was replaced by the grey clag and rain on Tuesday! It's about the same today, but not quite as wet. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else, though. Our winters are very mild - we haven't had more than a couple of hours with snow on the ground for 5 or 6 years now.
Here in the UK we are having an early general election called for by Theresa May –it’s a pity that there are not many Monster Raving Loony Party candidates in the forthcoming election :!: :shock:

I'm pretty much against Hayek's neoliberal globalism which was adopted by Thatcher and Reagan as the basis of their politics. The deregulation has caused Australia to lose it's manufacturing - and we now have some very bad social problems. However I think that the globalist theory has some merit and we should be careful to not throw the baby out with the bathwater. People such as Trump won't improve anything. Perhaps if the British thought of more ways their association with the common market could be improved, there might be more sense in the proceedings ? I believe Theresa May is simply opportunistic - the Tories are very adaptable.
