Not picking a fight, but I have never really trusted my recollections of the weather from my childhood. I know what you are saying though - late 1960s, perhaps? I think that I remember things in a way that can't be trusted for scientific purposes. For example, we remember the extremes without recording the mean years. I wonder how much of it is just our perspective change as we grow older.

That's why I tend to rely on science people. While they are still pissing me off by lying about how magnets work, I figure they know their shit.

Hahaha opposites attract...because...they just do okay? hahahaha

There was a mini ice age about the time the europeans started "discovering" and "colonizing" the east coast of America. It helped precipitate the potato famine that brought so many irish to these shores. It affected the way trees grew, the Stradivarius Violins were crafted from trees that grew during these years. It's a matter of Deep Time, as humans we cannot comprehend our place on the earth accurately because we haven't the perspective to judge it properly. I think nature is indifferent to human affairs, much to our chagrin. ok I'm stoned and I'm not sure I communicated my thoughts clearly but oh well.

I believe the mini ice age you speak of that caused "the year of no summer" on east coast of U.S. was caused by particulate matter flung into the atmosphere by the TAMBORA eruption (and a few others that same year) in the previous year.

Krakatoa's eruption was so immense in 535 AD, that it's said to be the source behind the dark ages, it's smaller {still growing mind you} offspring is currently active and is a big concern for volcanologists, when it erupts it's going to cause world wide chaos.
This series of volcano's has erupted without fail for centuries and always with dire consequences.
