Aside from heat that I am fundamentally not built for, we had an actual tornado near me yesterday. Tornadoes are not completely unheard I guess, but they’re not common or something that we really plan for where I live. Humidity has also been wildly over the top, and pretty consistent instead of occasional. It feels almost tropical, or what I would imagine tropical weather to be. I’m from a traditionally cold-ish, temperate place. We have always gotten all kinds of weird weather but it feels a lot more consistently steamy and intense than it used to. What weird new weather things are happening where you live? How are you adapting to them? (How on earth do you cope when everything feels wet?)

    Our summers and winters have gotten hotter every year. We now usually get tons of forest fire smoke in the summers. In 2019 it was so bad everything was like orange silent hill. You could barely see across the street.

    Smoke was never a thing when I was growing up. And it was rare to have a delayed snowfall until late November or December, but that’s becoming more common too.

    I’m unsure of this next part(anecdotal and hard to look up) but I remember way more butterflies as a kid. Big ones too! But now we usually only get smaller ones and they’re usually less common to see.
