This climate change has been a plus for us here in BC (10ish degrees above normal) compared to most parts like the North American East (extreme cold) or Aus (extreme heat).
I believe the sun is the main cause, impacting our magnetic fields (poles) and thus the jet streams. We happen to be on the good side of the transition zones. I am not an AGW stooge willing to be taxed up the wazoo even if I think human pollution is not helping the situation.
Or as BG says with the gold market, WTFDIK…
