Climate change is affecting global weather drastically.

The Faroe Islands.
The UK and northern Europe are expected to be the windiest places on the planet this weekend.
On Friday, areas suffering from low pressure, driven by a strengthening jet stream, will be forecast to barrel in from the Atlantic. Storms are likely to be on the horizon.
Winds speeding up to 112 km/h will be affecting the Irish west coast and the Faroe Islands, with Norway's western coastline bound to experience strong winds on Saturday.
Low pressure, in addition, will be witnessed in south Australia, which will whip up a last blast of winter in a big part of the country as Antarctica's polar air moves north.

On Tuesday, weather conditions are likely to get worse, ushering in temperatures about 10 to 15 degrees Celsius below zero across Western Australia, South Australia, and the Northern Territory.
Communities on the coast will be taking the brunt of the cold.
Greenland, on the other hand, will experience a sharp rise in temperatures, rising 20 degrees Celsius above its average for this time of the year. Temperatures in the country broke records last month, rising 8 degrees Celsius above the average in September.
Climate change has been exacerbating the crisis, melting polar ice caps, and the future consequences will be unknown with the continuous rise in temperature.
