    Soooo… “Snow” in Australia’s “June”?

    That’s like any lowland part of CONUS getting hail without the required anvilhead thunderstorm/tornado.

    Wow. The chaotic weather of climate change is really beginning to bite decades ahead of schedule.

        Lots of storms and extreme weather events have been blamed on Climate Change recently and it’s tempting to believe that this is just a trend to try and prove Climate Change. And look, that’s not an illogical position for someone who doesn’t understand much science. Climate Change has been in action much longer than you’ve been alive, it’s just now that we’re talking about it because of how much we now know and how big the threat is.

        US-centric figures to help your US-centric mind

        Not an American. I wouldn’t know most Imperial measurements even if they smacked me clear in the forehead

        Nor was I sarcastic. Climate change is causing changes in our planetary ecosystem and climate which is decades - and in some cases, even centuries - ahead of schedule.
