I like seasons. It should be hot now, and it is.
It should be, sure - but the amount is still abnormal, dangerous, and anthropogenic.
Whatever is happening has nothing to do with either of the four seasons. There should be a name for this fifth thing. Like Inferno or something. Incinerator.
I think the name is heatwave
We don't really get proper seasons anymore though. It's just drizzle from November to March, actually nice weather in March and April, followed by searing heat from late May to early October and then back to drizzle again. Winter no longer exists and summer takes up half the year
I mean, I distinctly remember going sledging with the kids 3 or 4 times during the winter, building a snowman, and defrosting my car every morning for many weeks. I also remember my plants not growing as I planted them too early. We definitely still have proper seasons.
Where do you live? I'm in the east and we had basically no snow (none of it settled) and there were only about 2 weeks where I even had to scrape ice off my car
North west / edge of Wales.
