The temperatures both night and day time are unseasonably warm and the result is blossom and daffodils starting to make their way above the grass. We've only had one frost so far and it's Christmas next week!
Climate Central record and compare temperatures globally - they are "An independent organization of leading scientists and journalists researching and reporting the facts about our changing climate and its impact on the American public." So for Europe this is the graphic up until 2014. 2015 will likely match that trend as a number of records have been broken again, especially in December 2105....their will be impacts on wildlife and shifts in patterns, confusion for plants and trees, etc.
Examples of climate change patterns on record levels of rainfall this year put into question the use of the Environment Agency's 1 in 100 Year events for Planning purposes.
Isn't it time to review trends and deviation statistics?
