The new WMO report concludes:
While climate scientists believe that it is not yet possible to attribute individual extremes to climate change, they increasingly conclude that many recent events would have occurred
in a different way – or would not have occurred at all – in the absence of climate change. For example, the likelihood of the 2003 European heatwave occurring was probably substantially increased by rising global temperatures.
this raises waffling to an artform…..
If warmists can, then so can we – I say it’s cooling. The 7″ of snow that we received in May is proof.
I have to quibble with your title for this post, Steve: “Not possible to blame individual extreme weather events on global warming …”
Of course it’s possible; it’s also dead wrong and stupid.
