I'm sorry to hear climate change also came for the Germans 100 years ago.

Germany mounts huge rescue effort after floods leave dozens dead and many more missing

"In some areas we have not seen this much rainfall in 100 years," Andreas Friedrich, a German weather service spokesman, told CNN.

I always wore shirts two sizes larger.
I needed the extra room to let my body breathe in summer and to hide the extra layers in winter.

I was looking at my records for this day last year, it was hot & muggy back then, too.
So where is all this "change" I'm supposed to be worried about ?

I enjoy whenever a newscaster says we've hit a temperature or had a weather event like we haven't seen in 100 years and then says it's probably due to climate change.

Wish the newscasters would say something about that for the thinkers in the room.
When I was out driving in Kansas on the job I'd see these markers by the road showing where the level water rose to in a "100 year flood." The farmers could see how high the water was and whether to try crossing. People talk about record heat but never talk about it was a record set in the 1930's. Dust Bowl era.

The great Midwest flood of 1993 was insane.
