Well it's actually a more important distinction than one between climate and weather. It's a distinction between "warming" and polarizing. Global warming models usually predict hotter summers AND colder winters. So it's not a matter of weather vs climate but of bad naming.
- elipsey 13y agoGood point, and there are other important changes that should be communicated like increased storm severity, and associated risk of floods (which we study in my lab), higher precip in some areas, less in others, and, I'm sure, lots of other stuff I don't know about. If I could figure out how to express all of that stuff clearly and concisely in between being yelled at by Bill O'Reilly, I guess I would have a different job title :)
