Duvall reflected on the cause of all the rain. “The weather seems to be more unusual every year to me,” he said. “Something’s changing. I don’t know what it is.”

Something’s changing
ITS THE CLIMATE AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. If the weather is changing every year you are experiencing changes to climate. Uhg. I just have to wonder what's gonna happen when these farmers and their neighbors in the midwest burbs realize the wool has been pulled over their eyes - as I expect at least a couple of them are of the climate denialist persuasion.
The imminent unavoidability of experiencing our disruption of the climate even by people who disbelieve is the one thing that gives me hope that we might be able to enact drastic changes. Hopefully we only need one or two more bad growing seasons to get the heartland to realize what's up.
Still, I am very concerned about what happens when these people realize Fox News has been deliberately lying to them.
I used to think "people will finally believe climate change once their lives are directly impacted by it." But now it seems like some people will never get it, no matter how direct the evidence is.

I have lived in the US Midwest for 4 years, and this year has had the worst weather by far. Winter was terrible, the Thanksgiving ice storm gave me mild ptsd; it took three times longer to go anywhere and I still slid around a few times. During the spring, the local farms were completely flooded for a solid month, and there's still standing water in most fields, three months later. There was an enormous tornado about 10 miles from my apartment. I have never been more scared of climate change, but it does give me some hope that it will spread awareness. Seeing the damage that climate change causes first-hand has definitely been eye-opening, and I already believed in climate change.
This is pretty terrible, it's obviously a run of awful luck what with the excessive rain and tornadoes, and doubtless it will effect the worst those who have the least to begin with. I very much...

I very much hope the rest of the United States can provide suitable assistance, even as that seems quite unfair as to what happened to Puerto Rico in similar circumstances.
...good fucking god these fucking republicans really are totally fucking insane. Hopefully the Freedom Caucus' base isn't too much more than 3.5% of America.

So close to saying climate change... so close.
