Talking to someone yesterday and remarkingupon the spring weather, the subject of religious/superstitious/mystical inkage to the corona pandemic. Now being the hot bed of theological debate the naked scientists is, I thought "where better to post a question on spiritualism other than TNS?", so I sat down and typed. This, I am typing this now, right now.

Anywhooo, do you think that The Corona and the spring we have had are due to a vengeful and jealous god ?

The same article says that February was the wettest on record. So, like the UK government, the jealous and vengeful god seems not to have a definite plan. Pretty well describes the President of the USA too - jealous, vengeful, lacking any coherent direction, and believing in his own deity.

February is a winter month FYI
Not in Australia, it isn't...
In February, Australia was just getting over some of the worst bushfires on record...

There could be a connection between unprecedented-sunshine & corona ...
Corona has reduced air-travel (https://www.cntraveler.com/story/coronavirus-air-travel-these-numbers-show-the-massive-impact-of-the-pandemic), air-travel seeds clouds (https://www.nature.com/articles/418601a), clouds block sunshine.
(Having said that the trend in recent years was for record-breaking hotness).

At they beginning of May my central heater failed and the outside temperature hung around 7°C I broke my rules and used the electricity supply for heating and of course since the boiler has been overhauled the temperatures have been in the low twenties I do not look back on May as a real hot month though very dry

This is a really interesting question. Although I like to stay on the ground of facts and don't wonder about why this is happening to us. I also highly recommend reading this article about self diagnosing Corona so you know when you are a dangerous person for the people around you (https://www.medmeister.de/coronavirus-test/ (https://www.medmeister.de/coronavirus-test/)). It's in german but easily translated. But I honestly love the question.

Meanwhile climate scientists at the University of Reading (definitely a center of excellence) report that reduced air pollution has increased solar heating of the surface.
So you can't win! More human activity = more CO2 = more heating. Less activity = more sun = more heating. We are doomed whatever we do.
