As far as I can remember it gets hot in the summer and cold in the winter. That didn't change this year, and not likely to next.
If you can't see the extreme weather changes from past years you are nuts. Here is the average weather in OKC. http://www.meoweather.com/history/United%20States/na/35.4675/-97.5161111/Oklahoma%20City.html
Last July 24th it was 95 degrees and this year it is 108. This year it started getting in the 100's in Mid June where as normally it doesn't get that hot here until late July or August. And I have a feeling if you check your weather records in Texas you have the same situation.
I was in the OKC 13 years ago in the middle of july, for a church youth function (as a counselor). It was in the hundreds the whole week. Last year was the mildest summer I have experienced in houston. I do work out side so the weather is a huge part of my life. The hottest summer I can remember was in 1980, I was in Arkansas then people were dropping like flies. They canceled little league baseball that year.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
