<p>Last year, leading Texas A&amp;M climate expert Andrew Dessler ridiculed Rick Perry for saying &#8220;<em>the rains will return, they always do</em>&#8221;</p>
<p>Dessler himself issued this brilliant forecast for Texas</p>
<blockquote><p>Get used to it. The weather of the 21st century will be very much like the hot and dry weather of 2011. Giving extra credibility to this forecast is the fact that the weather extremes that we are presently experiencing were predicted in the first edition in 1995.</p>
