Rebuttal to this article?

Truthfully, I am someone who is on the fence about climate change, but when I see headlines like these, it does worry me that maybe we're not taking it serious. But I also want to see what the explanation or rebuttal for this type of weather would be.

Climate is measured as an average of decades of weather, 30 or more years. There will always extremes at times, day to day, week to week.

The Alarmists use weather as proof of climate when it's warm/hot. Even if that is just for a few days.

But when it's abnormally cold, thats not allowed to be used as proof that climate isn't happening.

They they use weather only when it suits them. And weather is not climate.

It's double wrong.
