"The North Atlantic just completely destroyed its June average temperature record, breaking the previous record by more than 0.4 °C (0.7 °F).
A stunningly sharp excess for such a large body of water."

Something I’d heard about climate change many years ago was that it would happen almost imperceptibly slowly at first, then suddenly when we reach the tipping point, it would start happening very rapidly. I think we’re right at the sharp edge of that tipping point and things are going to get very interesting very quickly.
“Interesting” - the understatement of the century
It’s related to the old-timey curse that sounds like a complement. “May you live in interesting times”, because as interesting as it may be to read in the history books, It wasn’t as fun for the people living in those times.
Indeed. One can only wish to live in exceedingly boring times…
It’s just that you can’t be bothered to write up history with all the orgies and drugs.
god I wish we didn’t live in such interesting times
