Climate change:

More frequent/extreme heat waves.

More frequent/extreme cold fronts.

More frequent/extreme drought.

More frequent/extreme heavy rain.

More frequent/extreme storms.




This is basically why "climate change" is coming into fashion to replace "global warming." Warming is the problem, but it manifests in different ways. The same warming that makes worse heat waves also weakens the jet stream and lets the polar vortex move further south.
