To be fair this kind of thing goes both ways. Things like tornados and heat waves are being increasingly blamed on global warming. The author of the article even falls into the very fallacy he's decrying by suggesting that the polar vortex may have broken down because of global warming. People don't seem to understand that weather and climate are different things. The global temperature has risen .8 degrees since the late 1800s. To claim that we can feel that at the level of weather is ridiculous.
