For those of us that remember seasons?

When i was a kid....in around aboutbthe 70's....summer was summer...winter was winter .;.....now i have daffodils growing through the snow;.....i have a sunny day today in march yet last march was full of snow. Do seasons exist any more?

For those of us that remember seasons?
A LOT of us wish to know the answer to this question! I, too, remember the "seasons" in the 60s and the 70s. Yes - we have had a marked "reversal" of so many of the so-called normal seasons - it cannot be just by pure coincidence! Global Warming is certainly a big suspect these days. Who knows-? General air pollution, Global Warming, El Ninio effects, changes in the jet stream, etc. -- There can be many possible explanations. I just HOPE that the real cause(s) are discovered, and of course that SOMETHING can be done, before it is too late-!!

Reply:March is a month of huge temperature swings over a large part of the country. It is not uncommon at all to have 70 degree weather and then a foot of snow 24 hours later.



too blame this on global warming is a bit extreme. It has always happened this way.



take for example the record highsand Lows in Chicago for a few of the upcoming days

March 16-78 degrees in 1945 and -1 in 1900 (average is 46 and 29)

March 17-74 degrees in 1894, -1 in 1900 (average is 47 and 29)

March 18, 74 degrees in 1969 and 3 in 1921

march 19, 78 degrees in 1921 and 0 in 1923

March 23, 80 degrees in 1907and 9 in 1940
Reply:Yeah they still exist but are now affected by global warming so everything is out of sync. I suppose nature will eventually sort itself out and go back in sync. It may take another ice age and so many years but it will sort itself out eventually.

Reply:Yes there is no question about global warming causing varieties of weather - just what factors are causing it. Also the memories of childhood are inaccurate. I remember the 60's as being really hot yet my memories of the 70's are of rain and cool. I guess it depends on where you live and what age you are.
Reply:No not really. When I was young ,a long time before you, the seasons were clearly defined. When it was summer it was hot, winter was cold, not like it is now slightly chilly. We had winters like those of 1947 and 1963 which were very hard and went on for weeks with heavy snow most days. The country did not grind to a halt and the old steam trains had no problems getting through.Global warming is a con. We had coal fires and had done so for hundreds of years.
Reply:Yes but they are messed up.
Reply:Yes I fully understand your question, GLOBAL WARMING destroying our OZONE, is the reason for all of this going on in the world of weather today
