It isn't "low quality."

This article reports about the current weather conditions, it was not intended to "prove" anything about the cause of climate change. You expect from the news article something that nobody can give you (understanding of the causes) unless you have the capability and the wish to acquire it.

When the weather conditions reach all-time high, it's news. Especially if it matches the much longer trend.
