As I explain here, climate change is not only loading the weather dice against us, it's also replacing some of the numbers with extra 6's and even some 7s and an 8 -- making heatwaves more dangerous, heavy downpours more frequent, droughts longer and stronger, hurricanes intensify faster, and more.

Not much of that extra rain in SE Aust. It’s all slipping under Tasmania and setting us up for another drought.

In this Global Weirding episode, I go through each type of extreme and explain how and why climate change is making it more severe and/or more frequent (sometimes one, sometimes the other, sometimes both, depending on the type of weather event). www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT4a...

One thing I’ve noticed over the past few years is that extreme weather events seem to endure for days or even weeks - making heatwaves and heavy rainfall exponentially worse

What people forget is that those things translate into deaths, hunger and real costs in food, industry and others.
