It used to be warmer in Florida in the winter months here, North Central Florida, but lately it is bitter cold. Not too many hurricane warning or any hurricanes at all where I live but now they are coming here and many alerts and also orders to evacuate. Scary at times.
As seniors, meaning we've lived a long time, have you noticed weather changes?

Lived in Tucson from 1961 to 1973 and again from 2021 - Present. No change that I can tell at all.
What I CAN tell a difference in is the air pollution.
Especially in PHX; at the Grand Canyon; in El Paso on both sides of the border. Tucson, not so much.

Up here on the moors it is the lack of contrast that is most noticeable.
We used to get warm summers, the occasional hot one but we got deep snow in winter most years, rainy springs & autumns. Many a time we were completely cut off for a few weeks in winter as the snow ploughs & gritters never bothered with the narrow roads up here. Now it tends to be murky dull, quite mild & rainy for most of the year. It’s always windy & we get more rain now, can tell if it’s summer or winter from the temperature of the rain

I've noticed that seasons no longer slowly and peacefully change. They burst in.

This winter has been more normal with cold temps, but still a very small amount of snow. Less than 2 ft total whereas 8 ft for the season is more the normal. But it sure is nice!
Last winter was not really a winter with temps so warm that we had virtually no snowon the ground all winter. The winter before was record snowfall with over 12ft total.

I know that Climate Change is a serious thing, but the upside in my state, there is a lot less snow than there was when I was a child. Also, there are a lot less days of below zero weather. Last winter, no days were below zero temperature. This year, just one day. Then again, does that mean that summers will get warmer also?

Absolutely, beginning in the mid 1980s, long before I had heard of climate change.

Weather always changes, sort of cycles, since trees and brush started having big burns the Ice has been melting.
One day the 11000 ft thickest part of Greenland will melt. An area 3X the size of Texas. So Sea shores will gradually
Change, cities will be abandoned and people will move to Greenland to live.
People will move to Antartica to live. All the daily Stress of Work, succeed, profit etc gone forever. No need, everyone ok doing well enough.
Life will go on. AC Pumps will get more solar efficient in Deserts. Much Sea water will be desalted to use as
Life sustaining stuff for agriculture everywhere except the cliffs of mountains. More rain will fall cause of more
Moisture in clouds all of the time. So much solar powered pumps spraying water up in the air!
So the easiest way Is use Sea Wind Turbine and solars to power the pumps out there off Shore some miles
to create Trillions of gallons of fresh water, & spray salt water up into the air to evaporate. The Salt will just mix
With the fresh melt of Icebergs and Glaciers by the Trillions of Gallons fresh water mixing. Rivers will run, fish
will thrive, feasts will happen and parties galore locally too.
The future paradise of life living the latest-coolest-dance.
Many homes built in the mountains
above the water. People will darn Personal Protective Clothing and devices. Nothing big here.
Ai will be in charge of stuff and work hard to make life better for the Stupidest. There is no fix for stupid.
100,000,000's Autos won't exist. Every one will be under arrest and inside of a square mile all their lives.
Ai will have Id's of everyone, no one does anything but lay around in their fond-u-lotion's. More N likely Stoned!
I sort of think the Sun gradually heats up too and puts out warmness to all. U no this place has been around for Billions of years.
The low-lying cities, in Europe, London, DC, Tokyo, etc. won't be needed / underwater many feet of H2O, with the new, dance to the sweet beat world Government that has the time to care about people / families and their wonderous world of leisure. many Countries have so much Sea
in their futures. Thas a better thought too.
Coast lines changed by 100's of miles, Huge lakes everywhere, the world more glorious, wet, Blue & Green galore. The Dead / dry / ugly part all gone forever.
Most likely the more important thint for ya is quit swallowing thing coated with plastic, drinking stuff from plastic and let all that plastic stuff be tossed off to a fill to later be ground up into something reusable safely many 100's of years from your today. Ai can fix that then.
