20th February - Today's News: Another Big Winter Storm to Hit US

Whilst the weather remains rather benign - and boring - here in the UK, in the US Winter Storm Petra bears down on East Coast with 200 million people in parts of 39 states in its path.  There's a chance we could see near record high temperatures later this week.  Whether winter finally arrives in March, or early spring continues though, remains to be seen .... 

Southern Mexico's heat wave continues in 20 states, temperatures over 40 C in seven - but there is snow forecast in the north



It's claimed that climate change makes summer weather stormier yet more stagnant - but they obviously haven't been to England where summer thunderstorms are becoming an endangered species!

And sad news of the death of the 'grandfather of climate science', Wally Broecker
