Meteorologists have recorded unprecedented warmth in Austria during the first two weeks of this February since weather records began. Temperatures have exceeded the average by nearly 7 degrees Celsius around this time of the year. Even we've had days resembling the climate of late April. According to scientists, the La Niña, which replaces the El Niño phenomenon, will cause arid weather all over Europe, which is devastating news. Spain already suffers from the disappearing rivers. Suppose the predictions are accurate, and there is no rain but soaring temperatures. In that case, their already tough predicament will turn for the worse. As for our country, due to the wet and warm weather we've experienced lately, biologists expect one of the worst mozzie larvae infestations in March over here. They have to start mozzie control earlier than anticipated. Who has questions and doubts about climate change? I'd like to have a word with them.
Even though we enjoy this mild climate in February - there is no need to switch on the central heating system so often - we await the dire consequences it might induce during the rest of the year. These are indeed intriguing times. Almost reminiscent of biblical events.
