[muriel_volestrangler]

There's a 70% chance of a recurrence of the El Niño weather event before the end of this year, according to the World Meteorological Organisation.
...
Researchers say they are not expecting this new one to be as intense as 2015-16.

According to the WMO, climate change is influencing the traditional dynamics of these weather events.
...
"2018 started out with a weak La Niña event but its cooling effect was not enough to reduce the overall warming trend which means that this year is on track to be one of the warmest on record."

6. Every month we set new

high daytime temps and over night High temps. The scary thing is the over night higher low temps. This is creating a super amount of stress on every bit of foliage . What has been extremely evident is this,the Grasses are not recovering in the Desert. The Surfaces are so hot that the grasses are literately being burned off from the super heated soils.

When Death Valley gets more Rain than Vegas,you just know the Climate is jacked out of shape.
