Gazz... the killer heatwave in Europe a year ago was the result of a nasty persistant weather pattern. It would be like getting a high pressure to set up over California just the right way to cause Santa Ana winds to blow for weeks on end. It was simply a case of bad luck. IF it were because of global warming you'd expect the region to be at least warm the next year. Not cold like it was this year.
