Det är riktigt illa ställt nu när värmerekord efter värmerekord för april har slagits runt om i världen:
"By April 7 a total of 108 countries, over half of those on the world's list, had broken monthly records. From Berlin to Phuket, city after city is recording all-time high temperatures as records tumble on a daily basis."
Klimatmodellerna hänger inte med:
"And it is also becoming increasingly clear that our climate models are wrong and global warming is accelerating much faster than expected. That is because the models don’t take into account the removal of aerosols, especially sulphur dioxide that was removed from shipping fuel a few years ago, which has had the unintended consequence of allowing more sunlight to reach the earth’s surface."
I stora delar av Europa har våren i princip uteblivit och snabbt gått över till högsommar:
"Winter has faded extremely rapidly in Europe in the last two weeks and spring has effectively been skipped. In large parts of Europe it was hotter on April 7 than it usually gets in the middle of summer.
Part of the cause of a sudden surge of heat in Europe is Storm Kathleen, which has been moving across the Atlantic and before ravaging the Continent it has scooped up warm air from Africa and pushed it into Europe. Thanks to the effect of the storm, Europe is currently heating up twice as fast as the other continents."
Tyskland har upplevt rekordtidigt datum för temperaturen att nå 30 grader:
"German temperatures in the first week of April jumped to a maximum of 30.1°C with an average of 24.2°C across the country – the earliest 30°C ever recorded. Temperatures in Germany were driven up by a unusual wind blowing from the southwest that brought dry hot air from the Sahara to Germany, even coating cars in Berlin with a patina of sand from the Sahara Desert.
The highest temperature, in the town of Ohlsbach, was 30.1°C on April 6, by far the earliest 30°C in Germany history. In the south temperatures hit 29.8°C in Freiburg, 29.5°C in Emmendingen and 29.4°C in Muellheim."
Frankrike, många nya rekord och ovanligt höga minimitemperaturer:
"Dozens of monthly heat records fell in France on April 6, even though it’s only early April, but in southwest France the temperatures are already touching 34°C. The lowest temperature of 22.5°C in Biarritz in France on April 6 was the highest minimum temperature ever recorded in France for the month of April. In fact, 22.5°C was one of the highest minimum temperatures ever measured at this station since records began."
