Be careful where you are getting your weather news and why you are getting it
Well that's quite interesting but I'm not totally convinced. UAE had like a year's worth of rainfall in 24 hours this year which was very unusual. Dozens of pilgrims died in Saudi because of extreme temps. Europe has had massive heatwaves of 40C+, the US has had serious heatwaves. We've had a lot more flooding. Ski resorts have been shut down because of there being no snow. I think the frequency of extreme weather events has been pretty extraordinary in the last few years while I recognise that they have always happened to some extent
