Well, a report last year from the warmist CSIRO - yes, the CSIRO - concluded that perhaps global warming wasn?t to blame after all, and the drought would now be followed by years of rain. It was perhaps easier to say that with the drought already broken, but let?s be grateful that the global warming hype is crumbling after so many years of irrationality and opportunism, not to mention government waste:


The recent South-East Queensland (SEQ) drought was likely caused by shifts associated with climate variability over decades rather than climate change, according to the findings of a team of CSIRO researchers led by Dr Wenju Cai.

?We found that, unlike in South-West Western Australia, climate change plays little part in the SEQ rainfall reduction, but cannot be ruled out,? Dr Cai said.

The research team aimed to determine whether the SEQ?s recent rainfall reductions were partly due to climate change and, if so, whether dry conditions will occur there more often in the future.

?At this stage, renewal of a rain-generating process with La Ni?a bringing higher rainfall to SEQ might be expected to last for 10 to 20 years,? Dr Cai said.

So TheLorax,it looks to me like your AGW proponents have to and are finally starting to face up to facts without resorting to fudging & cheating with the stats.
