Another unwelcome first

[unixronin]

Last year, we had Hurricane Catarina, the first ever-recorded South Atlantic hurricane, and the first hurricane ever to strike Brazil.  Now, Vince (downgraded to 'tropical depression' by the time it made landfall) is the first recorded tropical cyclone ever to make landfall in Spain.

This is just one more piece of data in an increasingly worrying overall picture.

Glboal warming and climate change are junk science.

And anyway, the effects aren't that bad.
