I recently moved from champaign to the bay area.
I was reminiscing and missing the midwest summer storms earlier this week.

It's called (human-induced) climate changes

Everyone is seeming to notice it more this year, so I can't help but wonder if it's the opposite: That human effects on the weather (not climate) had reached an equilibrium, and everything stopping from the pandemic is causing local weather to chaotically revert to what it was before.
One example of how an effect like this could work: https://www.climatechangenews.com/2020/04/09/coronavirus-pla...

Wait i thought the problem is that it creates droughts, not more wet weather?
Or is it one of those things we could to point at if the needle moves in any direction?

Climate change causes... climate change. Whatever the climate has been for centuries in your area it will probably be different in the next 10-20 years. It might be warmer, wetter, cooler, drier or just more variable. It's hard to predict.

Exactly, it causes more instability, plus a slightly but steadily growing temperature.
And unfortunately, vegetables, plants, trees, nature like stability
It's supposed to be dead dry right now. It was dead dry last August.
But now we've been getting random thunderstorms almost daily.
Weirdass weather.
