BBC News - Scientists blame warmer Atlantic for wet summers

Recent warming in the Atlantic Ocean is the main cause of wet summers in northern Europe, according to a new study.

A cyclical pattern of rising and falling ocean temperatures is seen as a major influence on our weather.

Scientists say the current pattern will last as long as the Atlantic warming persists.

I always thought that ice cap melting would dump lots of cold water in the Atlantic and slow down the North Atlantic Drift and so it would get colder. Now it seems the opposite is true?

I don't understand any of this AGW stuff - but I know cuk has lots of experts of renowned repute who can help me out.

But previously they said it would cause hot dry summers and warm wet winters.

You can sum it up as:

Scientists blame X for Y, but admit a much larger research budget is required to be sure.

Where X and Y is anything you like related to climate and weather.
