Interesting article. And some claim that we can predict the mean world
temperature in 100 years.
Climate is like a gradually warming oven, while weather is the
individual vortices that occur inside that oven during the entire
warming period. Guess which phenomenon is easier to track? I need to
add that said oven would both warm and cool over time, but the net
effect would be warming. A lot of people are thrown off by the idea of
winter in a warming system. That's why averages are so important.
If you're still confused about the difference between climate and
weather, you ought not to post here.
