Offset

I don't think global warming or climate change or whatever they're calling it lately is a big deal. But I do wonder if perhaps the seasons have shifted a bit in the last few years.

It's been cold and clammy around here lately, and we're well into May. Maybe it's me, but back when I was a teenager May sure seemed warmer. I feel as though the cold is hanging around several weeks longer than it once did.

Warm weather hangs around until well into November, if you count highs near 60. But that does feel warm for that month, and even recent Decembers appear to have had their share of relative balminess.

So, has the climate changed? Sure. It's just offset itself about a month.
