It's about 5⁰C cooler here today than yesterday. Crisis averted .

What I am trying to say is you cannot use specific weather events to talk about climate. And of course once you go into statistics, you will lose 55.3% of your persuasiveness.

Weather events, by themselves, are just individual data points. But once you start looking at the big picture, it's difficult to not notice patterns. And said patterns are extremely alarming.

Climate is the conditions you expect and weather is the conditions you actually got. Always helps me to remember this.
