So, I don't know if any of you are aware, but Brazil's been facing a violent drought in the entire country. Where I live this is common (Northeast) but in the rest of the country, it definitily isn't. Deforesting the Amazon Rainfores is having a violent impact in the rest of the country, add this to a Global Warming and there you go, violent drought. Of course that deforesting the woods close to rivers and poluting it is also an extra to the situation, but that is it. I know da California is facing something similiar, right?

Well, winters have gotten really short and warm here. Typically at this time there were -30^oC temperatures, and instead it's raining

But of course, weather does not equal climate.

The last 2 winters in Toronto has been quite cold. The plus side I love cold winters and it is easy to know what to wear. I hate the yo-yo winters where is one day way below freezing and the next day it is well above freezing. A typical winter in Toronto is quite mild usually around freezing with a few days that we get extreme cold days where temps dip into -15 or greater usually those days also have a lot of wind so it feels closer to -30 or higher.
