This is a survey about weather over the years

I am 69 years old and I remember play outside in the "dog days of August" when it was 100 degrees. Didn't slow us down.
In my teens I ran a crane and put up high rise signs.....90 degrees did not bother me and still does not.
Now a days people think 75 degrees is hot and the weather news calls 80 degrees miserable, unbearable, and life threatening. What gives?
The same goes on with the other side of the coin, weather news call 4 inches of snow a blizzard or storm.
They tell people not to drive in it and stay home.
And if the temperatures get in the teens, you would think that the world was ending.
When I deer hunt I prefer it to be in the teens.
People talk of global warming when it was hotter back in the 60's and 70's.
What has happened to people? What do you think?

Back in 1969 we had a terrible sumer where it ran to 102 F in the shade, normally it was around 80 F. the next year it returned to normal. but over time it started to rise and by the year 2000 it was often around 100F. we need to keep in mind the there has always been weather changes since the end of the last ice age and cycles are to be expected.

What do you bet it will not be a record.
