It is a mistake to try to look at particular year-to-year weather changes where you live and see them as evidence of global warming (or to see them as evidence against global warming). Global warming is occurring at the rate of something on the order of 1°C per century. You can't possibly tell if 2015 in your town has been 0.01° hotter than it was last year! Global warming is imposed on much, much larger fluctuations. For example, an irregular oscillation in ocean current in the Pacific cause El Niño. This is an El Niño year and I'm sure it has affected Honduras. Where I lived, we had a really unusual amount of snow last winter. But that doesn't mean anything, the amount of snow can be hugely different from one year to another. We can go a whole winter and not have to get the snowblower out at all, or we can have something like the Blizzard of 1978 which pretty much kept us in our house for three days. Blizzards happen, hurricanes happen, droughts happen. There is good statistical evidence that the frequency of certain kinds of events, such as hurricanes, is increasing. Even so, global warming is like standing on a beach and watching 3 meter high waves crashing on the beach and trying to decide, by watching the waves, whether the tide is coming in.

You might want to put this in the discussion section.

There have been many warming and cooling periods in the past. I think it's more about natural climactic variations that have affected our Earth since time immemorial.
