As well as recording the extreme rainfall and flooding, heatwaves and bushfires, the report pointed out that climate change is already occuring, and is adversely affecting Australians. Also, that it is likely this will get worse (particularly if we don't do anything about it) and we should get ready for even more extreme weather in the years to come.
In the ABC news coverage, the Climate Commission describe it as the "climate on steroids". It's an accurate analogy - a whole new bunch of records being set, in ways that just aren't natural.
