You do realize, I hope, that this has been an ongoing pattern this year.
An ongoing pattern where? In your state? In North America? This is
not the worldwide trend. Temperatures in Japan and Europe, for
example, remain at record highs this year.
Also, trends that last only one year do not count. You have to look
for broader, longer trends. There have been several cold years in the
last few decades, but there have been many more hot years and the
average is higher than previous norms.
Finally, I believe global warming is thought to produce temperature
extremes including colder than normal temperatures in winter.
