Does that only apply in the wintertime?

Just a brief primer to help people understand the warmists better:
Summer = Man-made global warming
Winter = Just weather
An extreme event is weather. The distribution of extreme events is climate.

I agree and that's why I live in a location that used to have one on the coolest summer climates in North America. The average high for this date used to be 72.3F.....Not anymore...My AC has been blasting since May this year. Thank goodness it still cools to around 57F at night.

There have been a total of 852 wildfires so far this year in British Columbia which have burned 141,240 acres.

No Spartacus, winters are projected to warm even more than summers...It's certainly happening where I live.

Toronto’s summers are projected to warm by four degrees Celsius by 2051 to 2080 in a high-carbon scenario; in comparison, its winters are projected to warm five degrees Celsius. Churchill summers will warm by 3.5 degrees Celsius; its winters by nine degrees. https://nationalpost.com/news/canada...climate-change

I checked what the records for Victoria. Just a couple of days the temperature reached 78, but for the most part it has been around 70, which is average for that part of the world.

Yesterday the recorded temperature was 69-54, if you need air condition for that type temperature you may have some health issue.

But that's just a prediction. A "model."

They say "by 2051 to 2080" because they know most of us won't be around to see if that actually happens.

It was also "predicted" in the '70s that the sea level would rise by 20 feet by the year 2000. Didn't happen, as we all know.

This non-sense is passed as science. It is the gospel for modern day people. They can't get right the weather for next week, and they think they can predict the climate in 60 years. What a joke.

Yes, "the average temperature will increase by x amount in 100 years." That is basically what there are saying.

Seeing that I live here, are you accusing me of lying? According to our local weather station yesterday's high was 75.4F NOT 69.....Much cooler than the last two weeks. Today's forecast is 81F, and tomorrow 84F. In my world that is hot weather.

Right we won't be around but my grand kids will be around.

By the way I have no idea who made the crazy prediction "sea level would rise by 20 feet by the year 2000." Here is the real prediction. Sea levels are rising faster now than in the previous century, and could rise between 50cm to 1.5 metres (4.9 feet) by 2100.....

I am not saying you are lying. I am not talking about forecasts, they can say whatever they want, I am giving the actual recorded temperatures. Here is another website, It shows the average high temperature for july was 64 in that area.
