Weather reactions are always steeped in recency bias.This isnt that abnormal, it is just that it follows 3 or 4 warm winters in a row.

This weather we are seeing now was par for the course in the 70s. The Great Lakes froze 100% nearly every year and on some days you could see an image of Chicago hanging upside down on the horizon from the lakeshore in Kalamazoo a couple hundred miles away from a trick of the atmosphere called cold air inversion. Look up the images if you dont believe me.. This year the Lakes were < 5% ice just 2 weeks ago.

Five or six years ago we saw around 10 nights dip to -30 in SE Michigan, something I had never before seen even for 1 night in my 55 years. This year we havent seen negative temps yet, though we are supposed to tonight. Ten or so years ago we had over 100 inches of snow for the year which broke the record by about 20 inches. In December 1999 it snowed almost every day here including the only time I have ever seen blizzard warnings in this part of Michigan.

Weather is always fraught with recency bias. We always think this extreme we are feeling right now is the worst ever and that is reinforced by the liars in the media to further an agenda. Why do you think The Weather Channel names every storm now?

I am a concrete contractor and supplement my winter income with commercial snow removal contracts. I have detailed snow and temp records going back to 1990 for my area.

Edit to say this is for my area. I realize the stuff happening in Texas is a bit unusual. But when the polar vortex breaks loose things like this happen. Or heavy frosts in Central Florida that kills the orange crop.
