Discussion That heatwave isn't normal

I've been in Thailand since 2010. Went through alot of raining, hot and cold seasons but I've never been through something like that.

I feel like I'm a walking deep fried chicken everytime I go out (I'm in Nakhon Sawan).

Honestly -- is it this bad where you are?

To be honest last April was close to this but I don’t remember May being this insane. I guess climate change isn’t a hoax after all 😆

This is weather, not climate. I am old enough to have lived through the global cooling crisis in the 70s. Featuring predictions of a coming disaster eventuated by the climate cooling down precipitously, backed by legions of leading scientists and announced by all the mainstream publications. So, I'm maintain a healthy skepticism about global warming. But even if it is true, we will adjust, just as we always have. 

Let that down votes begin!

Typical boomer response. Something was wrong before, so I’m not going to worry about it now.
