- bbarnett 5y agoNo? From article: That was set in two towns in Saskatchewan - Yellow Grass and Midale - back in July 1937 at a balmy 45C (113F) Weather moves in cycles longer than human lives. You cannot rely upon personal experience, to know of local weather is truely unusual. We are like mayflies, not realizing that winter ever exists, or even times longer than a day.
- refurb 5y agoYup weather cycles are longer than human memory it seems. We go from "winters are so warm" to "wow, winters are so much colder now than before". Recency bias. You judge everything by what happened most recently.
- matwood 5y agoThe whole southeast has been mild this year (and had a lot of rain). Many evenings have felt fall-like in June. Understanding how climate change impacts weather is still very complex.
