And, what about the human tipping point; the time when Joe and Joanna Public decide they've had enough of all the posturing by world leaders? But, back to reality: sometime during the next 50 years or so, the melting of the Greenland ice sheet will cause a pulse-like rise in sea level. Yet more millions of souls will be on the move! -

19.0C and 49mm please, Roger? -
A bright, breezy 20C here at nine a.m. Tomorrow looks like a stinker!

But at least the dinosaurs didn't cause their own extinction. Unlike one species (Homo sapiens dimwitticus) I could name:

I've just a pic of all those poor, hard-done-by Brits queuing at Dover. That's post-2016 irony for you!

I just scooched through my BBC forecast app: not only might tomorrow's 23C be the highest temperature of the entire two weeks, we have eight days of thundery showers to look forward to. I'll believe that when I see it!

And China. Also, it seems to happen every year these days.

We have thunder!

London reached 33C in 1968.

And there's nothing like this around here. I guess one storm per fifty warnings must be okay?

Heatwave? What heatwave? It's always warm down there in summer!

Were I in one of Brits' favourite haunts, I think I'd stay underwater!
-
Well, here I am sitting in my sitting room with my windies wide open, wondering why anyone would spend a holiday in Greece or Italy. Boil me alive!
-
But the NH wave-5 pattern is very similar to what we saw last year; It just isn't in the right place this time. Sod's law!
