I got out of work dry and was soaked to the skin as soon as I made it down the stairs. It's unbelievable. What is going on?? This isn't normal at all!

Normal? Well, sort of. New normal. Until the climate stops heating up and settles into a new equilibrium. But for my lifetime (and probably yours)? Instability is normal, I'm sorry to say.

(Sorry. Had to reply, just on the off-chance you weren't waxing rhetorical.)
