We are in a subtropical region with a monsoonal warm wet season (jan-mar/april) and cool dry season. Normal winter minimum temps are 7 deg C in a warm year and 0 degrees C in a normal cool winter. This winter, 18-19 is the overnight min, with only a few clear nights falling to 14-15. There are species that have winter/hibernation cycles necessary for breeding. Some won’t get their natural cues this year. The block-out-the-sun idea is rubbish here, because it’s the clear skies that let the heat of the earth and sea out. Cloud cover in the winter =heat. Also the summers have become unbearable, and spring is one heatwave warning after the next. This year and last year, any clear sky soon has 1 or more aircraft trails appear, and you can watch these throughout the day expand from a thin trail into a thicker one, to usually a complete silk veil over the whole sky. Then comes smutty-coloured clouds, and super-wet rain. What i mean by super-wet rain is that it soaks into the dry clay straight away, as if it contains a wetting agent, whereas it normally takes a lot more rain to wet below the surface in our soils. It also feels different under foot. I’m a farmer who depends on the weather so I notice these things, but I wonder whether they’re noticed by many people generally or not. If the trails are, as some suggest, created by new jet biofuels, the EPA should investigate and put an end to them because these changes are observable and extreme.
