I recall watching a documentary that saidth we should expect to see crazy weather situations such as fires, ice storms, heavy snow storms, droughts, floods, records on both ends of the sprectrum (highs and lows). They said that that climate change would cause instability in the beginning and this included cold weather extremes as well as other extremes.

So we have records back 10,000 years? Kind of hard to judge storm patterns on a few years of data.

tRump, who proudly states that he stands for nothing.
I was right to blame AGW. A tire on my pickup went flat, must be due to AGW.

Actually that reflects my opinion on it as well.

The real objection I have is the solution offered by the liberal elite globalist.
IDK but I suspect most people believe something close to that. Its easier to deny it than to argue for or against the solution. The weakest part of the whole issue is the solution which can't be measured for effect. It would be a sure way to make China the dominate world power.

It certainly looks that way. And the solution offered is hell.

Define normal. What is a normal hurricane season. It’s just weather after all.
