It no longer rains enough?

Are you a time traveller?

Otherwise you can’t possibly know that.

When it comes to climate and weather, no amount of recent past data can reliably predict what’s going to happen next.

I know that in the last 5 years, we've had 3 major droughts, and in the preceding 50 years, no droughts. This is more than sufficient evidence for me.

I'm not going to argue long-term weather cycles versus man-made climate change with you.
