But this is not climate, it's weather. Like you look like a fool on a cold winter mocking global warning, maybe wait a bit to call summer fires in Canada hottest summer in recent memory a direct climate change effect, or it'll just be invalidated next coldest summer in recent memory...

I remember forest fires in my country decades ago and they reduced a lot recently, so what, positive result of global warming and climate change, or good application of forest management ? Temperatures changing or ... anyway you get the point :D

There is no meaningful distinction between "average weather" and "climate". Enough weather observations is a climate observation.

> it'll just be invalidated next coldest summer in recent memory

that's why scientists are using terms like global climate disruption or global heating. Hotter hots and colder colds fit the model.
