I still need to read the article but I don't see the weather as anything but God commanded.
We get terrorized by some of the weather because of the media hype, i.e. snow storms in NC. They will broadcast for 4 days that an ice storm is coming, ruuuun to the store and buy all the bread and water and peanut butter. Then the snow comes and it is 1/12 of an inch. LOL
Interestingly enough, "Mother Nature" is up for Person of the Year this year.
