    It’s usually like this were i live, but the fall sometimes has some cute floods that kill a couple of people and destroy buildings

      You need that winter guy to be huge and bulky as well.

      Climate change is making extremes more references. At the same time as we’ve been having record heat, we’ve had record winters as well.

      The really cool thing about climate change is that even as the average temperature of the planet increases, winters get more and more severe. Think about how damn hot the rest of the world has to be if one continent is experiencing record lows while the overall temperature of the planet is hotter than average

        What’s rarely communicated clearly enough is that “warming” means “more energy”. If it had been called something like “atmospheric energy buildup” from the start, maybe there’d be fewer people saying dumbshit like “so much for global warming” every snowstorm.
