Reported today.

So far this May, D.C. has had a record number of rainy days (19 of 23) and the coolest high temperatures since 1882. This May’s afternoon highs are running an incredible 15 degrees cooler than last May’s. And we still haven’t hit 80 degrees.

The Southeast Regional Climate Center says D.C.’s recent temperatures most resemble San Francisco’s.
It snowed in Calgary yesterday. It is called weather.

It's also called reality....

Thing is even the EU is cooler then normal.

But I suspect that in June Noaa/Nasa will say that may was the hotest on record, again. As it's winter down under, You have to ask yourself, where is it hot.....

BTW it's cooler in California too.

Nope. It's a weather comparison.

After you do your homework on the difference between climate and weather you are welcome back.

In the meantime, your assignment is to figure out why an annually segmented, one third slice of a weather statistics dataset does not a climate graph make.

I've said it before and it still holds true
Definition by MMGW camp

Hint

Climate - long term

Weather - short term

Double Dog Hint:

What MMGW Cultists Consider Short Term and Long Term is the time needed to make their graphs tell the story they want it to tell to support their Holy Scriptures.
