Ribit,
Temperature is behind much of what is going on weatherwise in the world but there are many indirect correlations also going on. There are droughts, extreme shifts in weather patterns and other things being created by global warming that are not always directly attributable to it. And then there are some normal weather oddities that always go on from time to time. The problem is that these so called normal weather oddities are occuring much more frequently than they used to and that is the result of global warming and the resulting climate change that it is causing. The world needs very predictible weather patterns to thrive, survive and live and the predictibiity from year to year is getting more difficult to predict and some of the advanced predictions do not look very promising for the future.
