The weather is becoming more erratic for one main reason, the earth is getting warmer.

Of course, we all remember our great- and great-great-grandparent's stories about how stable the weather was in the pre-industrial age. About how, for instance, it ALWAYS snowed in Donner's Pass on December 24th, and the snowstorm would last for exactly 2 hours and 47 minutes. About how, on July 4th, they could ALWAYS count on a sunny 82F for their picnics.

Too bad we don't have that kind of predictable weather anymore.

Of course. Also, it always snowed on Christmas Eve when the carolers showed up. It was a wonderful life.
