Current weather is not like we remember from our youth. There appear to be more storms. Snowstorms and hurricanes appear worse along with record temperatures (both highs and lows). The spring comes earlier and the leaves stay on the trees longer in the fall. Drought is more common. What is happening? Is this just a naturally occurring change in the weather, or has mankind done something to change the weather?
