Winter is not coming, it is upon us. The temperature has dropped as the world has continued on its revolution around our Sun. In the Southern hemisphere we are getting cooler as the Northern hemisphere gains warmth.
It is amazing that a great temperature difference can occur with a small increase or decrease in the distance the Sun's rays travel to reach our land and ocean masses. Without the approximate 23 degree slant on the Earth's rotation we would not have seasons as they now are, it would just be hotter the closer to the equator and colder the greater the latitude.
The coming of Summer in the North means longer days, shorter nights, greater temperatures, more outdoor living. This will help decrease the spread of the Chinese Virus.
The opposite in the South, the Chinese Virus will likely cause more cases, more deaths, more economic pain. This is not good all around, but the human toll will be less than the economic toll inflicted upon us by the bureaucratic mandarins. Shutting down our economy was a bad idea from the very start, more discrete targeted shut downs would have ended up with similar fatalities but way less economic vandalism and destruction.
We have to see what the future brings for Aus during Winter, I await the coming details.
