Amory Lovins calls it the "Global Weirding" because the effect is different, depending on where you live. Let's start a thread of discussion with a description of how the climate is changing in the Midwest.
Iowa Climate Change expert Gene Takle of Iowa State University: "Well, we see that winters are getting warmer. That’s already happening and that was projected long ago. Winters are getting warmer faster than summers are getting warmer. We're seeing more precipitation and more precipitation in extreme events throughout the year.
"Nighttimes are warming more than daytime temperatures, so there is some subtle changes that all fit into the theoretical model and are projected to increase in the future."
