I think for the sake of our collective blood pressure that we're going
to have to accept that the norm as we new it no longer exists and that
a new generation exists for which our norm has little meaning. This is
not just in matters weather but all sorts of other matters as well.

This, of course, has always happened but perhaps not with such
rapidity as hitherto.
