Question: Is there any clear evidence of global warming in NC? It seems the past few winters have been cold.

Answer: There is no "clear" evidence or consensus concerning global warming. Climate varies over time, and while the climate does change, we do not yet completely understand whether the observed climate fluctuations are natural or man made. State Climate Office research suggests that since 1950, precipitation has increased across the state, minimum temperatures are increasing, especially in urban areas.
