When I was a child, I remember I always enjoyed the winter season. I have always been fascinated with cold weather because of its dark, gloomy and rainy weather patterns. I also enjoyed the fresh breeze and the n before the hard rain hit the ground.

My earliest memory of winter was when I took a little trip with my family to a winter event at the elementary school I attended when I was five-years-old. That day, I participated in games like competing to build a snowman with snow that was donated to the school. We also had prizes and I learned how to ice skate for the first time.

But as I grew older, I felt a drastic change, a change that made me question why I was no longer comfortable wearing warm clothing during winter.

Have you noticed that in winter, there are nights that are freezing cold, and nights that you can’t sleep because of the hot temperature outside?

I’m sure everyone knows that winter is the coldest season of the year in polar and temperate climates. Winter is caused by the axis of the earth facing away from the sun. As most know, the earth is tilted, so in other words, the side the earth is facing away from is the side that is coldest.

Summer is the warmest season of the year falling between spring and fall. Summer occurs when the sun passes directly above the equator because of the tilt of the earth. So in other words, we’re facing the sun.

What is going on with the weather? Why is it contradictory? Some answers might be that it is weather patterns like El Niño, but others have speculated the government is responsible for this unusual shift.

According to phys.org, most scientists agree that the warmest weather was around the year 2011-2015 from being the hottest five-year period, ever.

It was mostly due to the greenhouse gases that humans put into the atmosphere.

2015’s warming of .9˚C above the average for the 20th century was the “largest margin by which the annual global temperature record has been broken,” according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, because of the presence of a strong El Niño.

For those unaware of El Niño, it is a weather pattern that results when the ocean temperatures in the Pacific Ocean near the equator vary from the norm. El Niño usually occurs every two to seven years.

El Niño can affect the weather around the world by influencing high to low pressure systems, winds and precipitation.

Adam Scaife, head of long-range prediction at the U.K.’s Meteorological Office, expects that El Niño will contribute 25 percent of new record global temperatures in 2016. So that might be the reason why most of us are sleeping in our undies instead of our warm pajamas, but what about the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program?

Now, for the conspiracy theorist out there, we have HFAARP, a large array of high-frequency radio antennas located in Gakona, Alaska.

Although many believe the HFAARP was created to manipulate the weather to change with enough juice to trigger hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes, others are skeptical about it because they believe that it was created by the media to scare people.

I tried to find a credible website that described HAARP and its purpose, but found nothing. There was a website before, but it was taken down by the government, according to many websites.

I personally think the government is behind this climate change. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were, with all the advanced technology they hide from the public. Imagine if they did control the weather and this was a test.
