Another thunder storm here in Ottawa. Usually we get 1/2 dozen in August. This year we have had that

many and it is only June. Global warming is upon us. They say we will get more wet weather. And we already have a huge amount of the world's fresh water in Canada. How fair is that? In what ways has your local climate changed?

1. We are dry here now. I need rain.

We haven't had a good rain for about a month. Had a little bit last Friday but not nearly enough.

Detroit has set several weird weather records in the past few years. 2010 was the warmest spring on record, and then we just beat that in 2012. Last July was the hottest July on record. Last year was the wettest year on record. And so on.

Of course, there is no global warming, so it can't be that.

2. very warm winter here in Virginia, and a cooler May and June than I remember -- but I've only

lived here for 6 years or so... so I have no detailed personal knowledge.

3. Here in WI

we were above average this past winter, we are also dry but have been the last eight years, do believe things are changing here too.
