#bcstx hit 83°F Sunday: 13° above avg for Nov. 16. More like early October than mid-November.
Warmth sticks around Mon-Wed. Highs forecast to tie/break daily records.
@climatecentral.org’s Climate Shift Index shows this kind of fall warmth is now at least 2x more likely because of climate change.

Winter isn't what it used to be.
It's actually the fastest-warming season for much of the U.S.
Since just 1970, winters (December - February) have warmed in 98% of 244 U.S. cities analyzed by 3.9°F on average.

Human-caused climate change is making major hurricanes like Melissa much stronger, faster and ultimately more life-threatening
