Which of the following observations do you not comprehend?

Temperature:
Australian average temperatures have increased 0.9°C since 1950, with significant regional variations. The frequency of hot days and nights has increased and the frequency of cold days and nights has declined.

Rainfall:
Since 1950, most of eastern and south-western Australia has experienced substantial rainfall declines. Across New South Wales and Queensland these rainfall trends partly reflect a very wet period around the 1950s, though recent years have been unusually dry. In contrast, north-west Australia has become wetter over this period, mostly during summer.

From 1950 to 2005, extreme daily rainfall intensity and frequency has increased in north-western and central Australia and over the western tablelands of New South Wales, but decreased in the south-east and south-west and along the central east coast.

Oceans:
Global sea levels rose by about 17 cm during the 20th century, and by around 10 cm from 1920-2000 at the Australian coastal sites monitored. Substantial warming has also occurred in the three oceans surrounding Australia, particularly off the south-east coast and in the Indian Ocean.

My point is that Australia is the harbinger of what global heating will bring to other countries in future – extreme weather events such as heatwaves, flooding and wildfire, drought, dust storms, agricultural collapse and a shortage of drinking water.

Even a fake peer of the realm might find all that a bit much, what?

Is your point that local seasons can be confused as global trends or something? I don’t understand.
