windy, dirty, dusty

The weather in El Paso, Texas continues to be very unpleasant.
This would not be my choice of a place to live if I had only my own happiness to consider.

While it is not possible to say of any specific event of "unusual" weather that it was
a result of anthropocentric global warming, it is predicted that one consequence of
climate change will be more instances of weather which was previously regarded as
unusual---such as the drought in El Paso, Texas.

I believe that is pretty much what Bill McKibben was heard to say today on "Democracy Now'.
(I'll be adding a link later.)
