Weather changes.
Anyone who sais Global warming is the main reason either knows nothing about weather or is a liberal and using it for politcal gain. Global Warming is a true factor, but it does not change this rapidly frmo year to year, it is based on slow changes over a LONG period of time. Anyone over 20 has experienced a winter like this at some point their lives....
Next winter could be the coldest of your life.. you just dont know what will even happen.

What is the greenhouse effect, and is it affecting our climate?
The greenhouse effect is unquestionably real and helps to regulate the temperature of our planet. It is essential for life on Earth and is one of Earth's natural processes. It is the result of heat absorption by certain gases in the atmosphere (called greenhouse gases because they effectively 'trap' heat in the lower atmosphere) and re-radiation downward of some of that heat. Water vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas, followed by carbon dioxide and other trace gases. Without a natural greenhouse effect, the temperature of the Earth would be about zero degrees F (-18°C) instead of its present 57°F (14°C). So, the concern is not with the fact that we have a greenhouse effect, but whether human activities are leading to an enhancement of the greenhouse effect.
So, it is warm there just like everywhere. I'm in Wisconsin and we don't have any snow....my daughter hasn't had a snowy Christmas and she is 11.
