  • "The global heat records reflect the influence of a natural climate cycle as well, with a strengthening El Niño event in the Pacific Ocean. El Niño tends to cause global average temperatures to climb.

    • We've seen the effects of this in the Midwest of the U.S. This has been one of the driest summers I recall in South Central Wisconsin.

      • What's up my Madison brother! Yeah she dry out. My lawn is brown and I refuse to water it, lol.

        • Staying cool here! Yeah, I don't think I've seen it this dry since 2012.

          I caved, and watered a little bit over the course of the past two weeks (mostly when watering the garden, potted herbs & tomatoes in the backyard). Thankfully with that rainfall from a few days back, I'll probably mow the lawn tomorrow...first time in at least three weeks.
