It’s no secret the world is warming. In fact, 2024 is shaping up to be
the hottest year on record. Climate change is upon us. Historical averages are becoming just that: a thing of the past.
That’s why this winter heat is concerning. The warming trend will continue for at least as long as we keep burning fossil fuels and polluting the atmosphere. Remember, this is only August. The heatwaves of spring and summer are only going to be hotter.
The amount of heat plunging into central Australia was particularly unusual, Hines said.
On Friday, temperatures across northern South Australia and southern parts of the Northern Territory were as much as 15°C above average.
Temperatures continued to soar across northern parts of Western Australia over the weekend, with over 40°C recorded at Fitzroy Crossing on Sunday. It has been 2–12°C above average from Townsville all the way down to Melbourne for several days in a row.
Conversation LINKclimate change is a cam say some. I say the evidence is absolutely clear as this change to our usually coldest month has been defeated by HOT AIR. and coupled with the heat is dryness. humidity is falling as it did 5 years ago.
this isn't going to get easier..... and summer is coming.
so make certain your home insurances are up to date as we are headed back to the 2018/19 conditions this year.
