Winter is nearly over and in the minds of most (sensible) people has been one of the worst, if not 'the worst' winter ever experienced in the UK. Dreadful wind and gales; ridiculous levels of rainfall especially in the south and virtually no cold weather or snow or even frost.
I have often wondered with several of the mildest and wettest winters on record occuring in the last couple of decades whether we have reached a tipping point? I am a climate change convert and believe strongly that our climate is changing at an alarming rate.
If winter 2013-14 is a sign of UK winters to come and summer 2012 (washout) is how the majority of our summers are going to be how do you feel it will effect your lives in the UK?
Would terrible weather convince you to leave? Could you handle a winter 2013-14 every year? I realise there is more to life than weather, but potentially climate change could wreck havoc with the UK climate in every season, if in fact we get seasons in the future. We may just end up with one eternal Autumn!!
