More than a fantastic summer

I am at the moment enjoying a wonderful life at the Danish coast. For more than three weeks it has without interruption been a fantastic weather. Only necessary to be indoor around midday, when it simply is too hot outside. Mornings and in particular evenings are the most beautiful time.

Is the weather in the world changing or not? Memories are always short when you talk about the weather. Everybody thinks that all winters in the childhood were white. If you check it it is absolutely not true. Very, very few winters in Denmark have been white. The same thing about summers.

But still things are different. Very hot summers in Northern Europe. Cold and wet summers in the south. Or SO hot that fires breat out.

What is behind all that? I don't believe in the one-factor explanation: the CO2 problem. There must be more. But what? And where does it take us?

But it is good that we cannot (yet) decide the weather ourselves, perhaps even through crazy referenda!! What a mess that would be. But still it would be good to know more. So researchers: Get your very best thinking hat on!
