It was one of the driest, sunniest and warmest summers in the 20th century, although the summer of 1995 is now regarded as the driest.
The Government had begun to panic previously about low water levels in April and May, and water restrictions were introduced.
And by the summer months, the heat was so intense that the government introduced a Drought Act.
They also appointed a minister for Drought - Denis Howell - who was in charge of encouraging the public to use less water.

There were 20,years of no heating afterwards... thatnis until the lying liberal scientists changed the data from one of their satellites claiming that it wasn’t “in the right place to accurstely reflect the correct temperature”, so they changed the figures to suit their agenda, and viola, warming for those 20 years.
The winter of 76/77 in the NE USA was one of the coldest and snowiest, while the summer of 77 was very hot and dry.
I also remember about that time the Climate Experts were calling for Global Cooling and a new ice age.
Time to flip the coin again. Heads=Cooling and Tails=Warming.
Why is it that these “Experts” are NEVER held accountable for constantly being WRONG?
I remember the winter of ‘77 which was taken as proof of a new ice age coming. Orwell would be proud.
Because liberal,experts can’t ever npbe wrong- only common sense espousing conservetive experts are ever wrong.
109 years ago and this record has never been broken. Yet we're told to believe that the Earth is getting hotter?
Yeah, all this mewing and shrieking about a “dangerously heating” planet and “increasingly storms” and “wild fires” is just bull crap, since most of these henny-pennies either weren’t around or refuse to remember that it’s ALWAYS been this way. Heck, I remember some scorching hot summer and severe winters back when I was growing up in the 1970s and 1980s! It’s called the WEATHER!
*tries to remember 1976*
Me: I know I can do this...... *tries again*
The fall of 1976 and winter of 1977 in the central US, were so brutally cold they were used as “proof” we were entering the Coming Ice Age!
The year 1936 saw some wild weather. It began with a cold winter. In the spring, there was flooding in the east while the drought that had turned the Western Plains into a dustbowl persisted. Then came a scorching hot summer in the Midwest and the East.
The day the climate stops changing is gonna be a REALLY bad day.
Leonard Nimoy(Spock) narrated a show called "In Search of" back then, and he had a show about a new ice age.
I should also mention that in 1977 winter, the Continental US had 30 days complete cloud cover for the entire month of January or Feb.
Wonder how solar panels would work in such weather!
So brutally cold I caught my first case of pneumonia and spent a week in the hospital. I was 30 years old.
Heck we have to keep watch for many of the large storms coming out of the East. Especially with the lightning and such. Flooding has been frequent even in the cities.
”Gore-Bull” warming has always been a scam.
In Colorado in ‘76 we had an incredible snow season, huge piles were everywhere along the roadways. In ‘77 there was almost no snow. The ski areas opened late and tried to make some fake snow but few people came to ski as conditions were lousy. The resorts had a very tough season. Water runoff in the spring of ‘78 was pitiful.
And then the weather pattern changed again and snow was plentiful. Following the progression of El Nino and La Nina patterns is instructive as to the rhythms of precipitation and dry periods within larger cycles.
In Colorado right now it feels like the drought is breaking, we are getting a lot of flash floods which is usually the signal that the pattern is changing.
The planet is in the 3rd year of a La Nina pattern now.
“La Niño and La Niña are the warm and cool phases of a recurring climate pattern across the tropical Pacific—the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, or “ENSO” for short. The pattern shifts back and forth irregularly every two to seven years, and each phase triggers predictable disruptions of temperature, precipitation. These changes disrupt the large-scale air movements in the tropics, triggering a cascade of global side effects.”
That should be “El” Nino and La Nina above.
In Wisconsin, the WINTER of 1976 was one for the record books!
The worst part? I was a 16 year old girl WITHOUT A PHONE for a whole WEEK! Aarrgghhh! I still can’t believe I survived, LOL!
