Not trying to get political here, but both weather and climate change, just over different time periods.
Weather is what is happening right now on a daily or seasonal basis. Climate measures the range of those weather swings over much longer periods, whether (no pun intended) over a 10-, 50-, 100-, 1,000-, 10,000-year period, or more.
The bigger flood 50 years ago was in the extreme range, as is today's. Those are both weather. The fact there have now been four floods of St. Mark's Basilica in the last two decades, but only two others in the previous 1,200 years is indicative of some type of climate change.
yup. And not a darn thing we can do about it. Mother Nature is in charge.
