ok, don't call it "global warming", but it isn't right. haven't seen an old fashioned winter in many years and the summers seem to get hotter and drier here in Pa.. and in a few years when power companys start shutting down power plants people will really start complaining when all their air conditioners don't work. i know one company is mothballing over 50% of their generation in 2015. that is a fact.
I don't know what part of PA you're in, but here in the western part, there has been a few recent harsh winters. The winters 3 & 4 years ago were terrible. To put it into perspective, Homer Alaska averages around 55 inches a year, 4 years ago we had somwhere in the low 70s. I have noticed that we don't have much spring/fall anymore. It seems to go from cold to hot, and vice versa in the fall, rather quickly.
