Subject: How a volcano short-circuited Earth's ionosphere to trigger "Year Without A Summer"

>>The year 1816 was a weird one, climatically speaking. Months that would normally be warm and pleasant were cold, rainy and overcast, leading to crop shortages across much of the Northern Hemisphere. It was linked to one of the most powerful volcanic eruptions in recorded history, and now we may know how. A new paper out of Imperial College London explains how electrified ash from the eruption could have “short-circuited” the Earth’s ionosphere and triggered the “Year Without A Summer.”<<

That was good up to the “could have” bit.

You should complain about the lack of record keepers of the time. Science is rarely if ever definitive.
