Climate change makes the weather weird.
The hots hotter
The colds colder
Heavier rains, more frequent severe hurricanes.
Cold snaps in strange places
How did it get so weird? We don’t know anymore. In the past 200 years of burning fossil fuels, we’ve put so much CO2 in the atmosphere, we no longer know if our weather is an act of nature or an act of man.
Its safe to say we can count on unpredictable and weirder weather to continue. We’re going to have to learn how to live with a higher level of uncertainty in the years to come as the weather gets weirder.
