The latest report on climate change is chock full of information about how difficult our collective future could be, weather-wise.
One thing seems certain, the Great Plains region is probably going to fare a lot better than where yours truly grew up in the Northeast, though it’s a pretty good guess that the combination of the shale oil boom and winters that aren’t nearly as harsh as they once were will be attracting more people to places like the one we now call home in Montana.
We visited eastern Pennsylvania, less than an hour north of Philadelphia, just after Superstorm Sandy struck a couple years ago and, from the looks of the latest climate change data, that may become a more common occurrence.
Just the the fact that the Northeast recently had two once-in-a-century storms in three years should lend this report a lot more credence than the one four years ago in the minds of those who still don’t think climate change is real.
