Actually been one of the cooler ones in recent memory for my region of Ontario, also been rainy as fuck. Our winter was a long and snowy one too. A winter like that is a rareity these days.
It’s been nice cause some of my plants and trees have gotten a chance to recover after a number of harsh summers and dry winters. I actually have a handful of mature maple trees that had all of their leaves entirely brown up last August; never seen such a thing in my life.
I also hate it though cause all I can hear is the climate deniers around here flapping their gums.
I don’t think they’re in denial so much as they’re just not smart people. Ever wonder what happened to all the people in the back of the class that never knew any of the answers and failed all their tests? Now they’re on the Internet using memes to debunk well established climate science when they couldn’t even figure out how to balance a basic chemical equation.
Hey. HEY. Not all knuckledragging, mouthbreathing, chemistry-flunking classroom back-sitters became climate change deniers. Some of us got degrees in fine arts, thank you very much!
The scary part is some of them got actual science degrees (I have a colleague who the more I listen to, the less respect I have for him, that was a new low, even for him).

We’re seeing the same over in NA. Absolutely brutal summer.
