Actual LA Times Headline: ‘Ice storm paradox: It’s colder because the Earth is warmer’

LA Times Excerpt: In just the last couple of years, Americans have experienced epic tornados in the center of the country, a monster storm that flooded Manhattan and ravaged New Jersey, extended drought in the West that threatens agriculture and water supplies, and an unprecedented number of wildfires in forests dried to the flammability of kindling. This winter, frigid polar air has slipped south, freezing much of the country, while in Alaska the season has been unusually warm. There are piles of snow in Atlanta, but a dearth of snow in the Sierra.

They are now busy making plans to deal with the costly disruptions and lethal disasters that climate change has already begun to bring.
