So what's causing this current cold spell?

Global warming ;D ;D ;D ;D

Seriously, according to the Met Office (whom I believe to be a completely trustworthy lot), the current cold spell is being caused by the warming of the southern hemisphere's strataspheric conditions. This has also resulted in the hottest day ever in Australia today - 46 degrees centigrade.

I think its a good example of how the worlds varying temperatures interact with each other to give a colder location in one part of the world caused by a warmer one elsewhere in the world. Interesting, no?

That article may well be BS as it talks about ice lost which is false

It could be global warming or it could be due to the fact that.......IT'S F#CKING WINTER!
What next? the leaves turning brown in September is due to climate change.

The thread's about how the worlds climate interacts, specifically the two hemisphere's - not a winge about how cold it is

Global warming/climate change. Anything to raise road tax.
