From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Paul Homewood<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attention seeking clown is back again:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For many, the summer of 2022 sticks in the mind like a sweat-soaked shirt to the back beneath the country\u2019s blazing 40C heatwave. [<\/em>The summer, by the way, that was not as hot as 1976 or 1995 or 2018! \u2013 Ed)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UK saw temperatures smash records never seen before with the mercury hitting 40.3C in Lincolnshire, in what was the highest figure seen in UK climate history. But while Brits may have dodged a repeat of the infamous heat snap last year, 2023 was still Earth\u2019s hottest on record overall \u2013 and fears are mounting over the dials rising again before summer even arrives.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meteorologist Jim Dale claims Brits are in for a sweltering spring, seeing <\/strong><\/em>heat<\/strong><\/em><\/a> to rival that of 2022\u2019s in April, while the Met Office has already projected overall temperatures this year to <\/strong><\/em>smash records again<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. Speaking to GB News, he said temperatures could climb unseasonably high this month as a result of <\/strong><\/em>climate change<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We will see hot <\/strong><\/em>weather<\/strong><\/em><\/a> start to bake in during the course of April, and at times in the summer time,” Mr Dale said. “We are not divorced from what is going around the globe and what is going on is quite frightening in terms of the temperature profiles. The USA has just had its warmest winter ever.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile the Met Office outlook says temperatures may be slightly above average, the weather will be generally damp and changeable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reading the comments suggest the Mirror has now overtaken the Express as a joke when it comes to weather forecasting \u2013 and that is saying something!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
