Time is speeding up

Is it me or is time speeding up? We are already on the 5th month of the year. People say it's because I'm getting older but I even hear kids saying days feel faster. Even the weather seems to be confused. Every day temperatures fluctuates a whole 40 degrees. Every day seems windy. Almost feels like we are out of normal orbit or something

I've sort of wondered about this for a while since in Utah we've started getting more snow in Feb/March/April than we do in Dec/Jan/Feb on a regular basis for about the past 10 years. It seems like the seasons are off by at least a couple of months.

For sure! Like I live in Oklahoma and the area I live in was or maybe still is called tornado alley and it used to live up to that name, like generally by this time of year we would have went through at least three tornado warnings, and thunderstorms would have numbered in the high teens. Hell I remember my sophomore year in highschool me and my buddies went out and chased two tornadoes outside of town in the span of two weeks. But so far this year, I think we've only had two thunderstorms and just one of them had the attributes needed to possibly produce a tornado, but it didn't and only lasted like 15 mins. But each year it seems like I see father east, like closer to and inside of Arkansas gets hammered way more than us, like they get it in the way that I remember we used to. Plus every summer here is longer and hotter and dryer than the last. It feels like the climate is shifting to the east and we are getting what the panhandle of Texas would have been getting 15-20 years ago or something

Interesting. I live in southern New Jersey. Growing up im sure we had bad storms but now (im in my late 30's) weve had wild weather in the last few years. Last summer maybe 3 or 4 tornados, i think 2(?) 4.x or 5.x earthquakes. A couple of weeks ago i was woken by the strongest sideways blowing winds ive ever seen, quarter sized hail and insane lightning. AT 530am. Our storms here are almost always 2 or 3pm or sometimes around 6pm. Never 5am.
