Sigh. It's local weather versus global climate. In my country it's quite "cold" (for the season) where I live, whereas just 300km south it's hot summer weather

Sigh. It's local weather versus global climate.
In my country it's quite "cold" (for the season) where I live, whereas just 300km south it's hot summer weather as per usual.
Also saying the summer is extremely cold when it's not even over yet is quite a stretch - there's about 6 weeks left, 4 of which could just as well become hot.

The article says carbon is a 600x likelihood multiplier. That's one region in one season. What is the likelihood of such an event in any region over 4 seasons? These sorts of stories promote misunderstanding of exactly your point.
