I would love to hear from all Freepers.Tell me if u have seen any change in your summers over the last 30 or so years.I have lived in Florida since 1990, No Change In Our Summer Weather Patterns!! Average day between 85-95, from June thru October.
I noticed a sharp decrease in summer temperatures in 2001, compared to the 30 years before that.
Oddly enough, that coincides with the year I moved from south Texas to Maine.
And fewer hurricanes.

I have noticed a dramatic change in the last 10 years, here in Kansas.
Namely, whenever it gets really hot, anybody under 25 years old believes that it is somehow unusual, extreme, unheard of, etc. Seriously, people are being brainwashed into thinking miserably hot weather never used to happen.
The ease with which the brainwashing has occurred is terrifying.
I’m thinking not 30 yearsbut more like 40. My recollection of the summers of the mid 1970s is that they were warm but notn continuously hot. There would be frequent breaks from thunderstorms pushed through by cold fronts. This summer is following that pattern so far.
We came to SFL in 1972.
It actually feels cooler than ever for this time of year.
Have anyone ever seen a human being been able to alter or control weather patterns. WHY do they think they can control “global warming/cooling”??? Absolutely stupid and insane!!!
Here’s one change... A hundred years ago oranges could be grown as far north as , St. Augustine. There are still very old orange trees there. The ‘orange’ line has been moving south ever since. Citrus Tower in Lake Country was big in the fifties... Today the ‘orange line’ is south of Orland.
I point out that if Globull warming were real, we’d be having April showers in March by now. Tain’t happening.
