Heat waves have become more common because the BoM changed the definition, for 150 years a HW was defined as five consecutive days above 38C (100F), now the BoM claims a HW is three consecutive days over 30C or what we would call 'a pleasant warm spell'

It was 50C when I journeyed south of Marrakesch, Morocco ... back 40 years ago. Hurricanes used to be measured by strongest gust coming ashore, now they are measured by airplanes up 10,000 feet on the eyewall. Temperatures used to be measured in the shade in rural areas. Now they are measured in urban heat islands. NWS Seattle station is on 23,000 acres of smoking hot asphalt / concrete, running +10F-14F over 'real' temps all summer.

Weather is a specific event-like a rainstorm or hot day-that happens over a few hours, days or weeks. Climate is the average weather conditions in a place over 30 years or more.

[@Berserker978]

Question: Has there ever been a time when the Climate Hasn't changed? Answer: No, the Earth's climate has always changed. Natural cycles The Earth's climate has warmed and cooled naturally over cycles that repeat every 100,000 years or so. These cycles are caused by changes in the Earth's orbit and tilt, which affect how much of the sun's energy the Earth absorbs. So Eat 👉💩 Bedwetter.

The weather on earth has always been the same, Earth has had the same weather cycles for millions of years, earth has been in the phase of meltdown for the last 12,000 years, it has nothing to do with human carbon footprint, carbon impacts oxygen quality, also temperatures have been consistent for the past 40 years & temperature's still drop significantly at night which indicates the planet isn't warming, the sun's activity has an impact on Earth's weather conditions and its completely out of human control. & in fact the sun moves about 1.5cm further away from Earth every year, about 100,000 years from now earth will need a significant amount of carbon in its atmosphere to aid in heat retention from our dying star we call our sun, also trees need carbon to grow, in the Jurassic Period the carbon levels were higher than they are today, weather conditions have always been a stable pattern with Earth's orbit around the sun these Cycles take many thousands of years. Trees to reduce carbon footprint fire up clean coal stations untill we can find a sustainable energy that wont leave a toxic mess behind, put more efforts into the research on how to neutralise nuclear waste, it needs to be disposed of off Earth, storing nuclear waste under the ground on our planet for thousands of years isn't a sustainable process and could have alternating effects on Human genetics if and when a natural disaster impacts nuclear waste storage facilities, humans have a mindset that what they build is indestructible and that's where we've had to learn from our mistakes, the government has no idea about climate. And the natural weather patterns on Earth.

A history lesson for Albo. This comes from The Melbourne Argus newspaper on Saturday 17th January 1857 relating to the Black Thursday fires which began on Thursday 6th February 1851, a time when journalists reported truthfully and factually. The source is from the Trove government archives. "It is a most remarkable fact, as illustrative of the deficient foresight of even an intelligent people, that we accustom ourselves to speak of Black Thursday as a thing that has been, but is not likely to occur again. This is utterly irrational. A similar day, accompanied with all it's terrible peculiarities, might befall us to-morrow, or any day during the full heats of any one of our summers."
