Unusual Weather and the Signs of the Times
Floods visited Wisconsin, Idaho, and Minnesota during the month of May. And in the Middle West unusually hot weather prevailed. In fact, May has had weather that is not expected before July and August, the thermometer in a number of places registering as high as 107°. There were quite a number of prostrations from the heat. If you will take the pains to observe these things, you will see that from year to year the heat of the summers is growing more and more intense, and the casualties from sunstroke are becoming more numerous. The seasons are unusual. We have things in May that we naturally would not expect until June or July. For instance, we used to think that the country was immune from tornadoes in winter and the early spring months, and that only the summer, with its intensely heated centers, would give us these terrifying storms. But these theories have all been shattered to pieces by the events of the past winter and spring. The people of this world should be awakened to the fact that we are passing through very unusual conditions in almost every aspect with which our planet has to do, and they should study to know the meaning of it.
