Climate change makes extreme weather more likely. Pointing out that extreme weather existed in the past too is not a sufficient counterargument.

On the other hand, automatically labeling everything temperature related as "caused by climate change" is not a proper argument as well.

I mean this is most likely actually related to climate change, but this should be verified/modelled before coming to conclusions. Even when it is absolutely obvious.
