Not to mention that California's crop is under siege and Texas is under snow, and so on.

Global warming means the average temperature of the earth will increase, however this is only by 2 or 3 degrees. This small change in temperature is enough to really throw off weather cycles. In some cases global warming will actually cause some parts of the world to experience colder weather.

It could easily be both. There are bears coming out of hibernation in Russia because it's so warm they think its spring. Usually Moscow is -20C this time of year and several feet deep in snow but at present it's about +6C and snow-free. There are migratory birds in the UK that haven't flown south this winter because it's so warm that the insects they eat survive the winter.
Basically one of the effects of "global warming" is to put more energy into the weather system - this means that we can expect more extreme events - that means hot and cold, as well as floods, storms, hurricanes etc etc.

It's most likely related to global warming. The exact culprit is the end of yet another El Nino, which because of warming is occuring more often.

Well, it could be due to the centrifugal force of the earths orbit around the sun and it goes farther away from the sun. But the next ice age is not coming for another 10000 years

It would be global warming, which it has been a problem in the last couple of years.
