My understanding of global warming is that it will bring colder winters , hotter summers, and bigger storms. All of which are happening . Australia is experiencing a heatwave at the moment temps of 49c (120f) . Spain is dealing with a blizzard I'm far from a scientist or climatologist , this is just my understanding .
Actually,"all those things are NOT happening. The models PREDICT they might happen.
Here is a 2017 statement from NOAA; Pay close attention to their wording.

Summary StatementTwo frequently asked questions on global warming and hurricanes are the following:
1. Have humans already caused a detectable increase in Atlantic hurricane activity or global tropical cyclone activity?
2. What changes in hurricane activity are
expected for the late 21st century, given the pronounced global warming scenarios from IPCC
models?
In this review, we address these questions in the context of published research findings. We will first present our main conclusions and then follow with some background discussion of the research that leads to these conclusions.
“Detectable” change here will refer to a change that is large enough to be clearly distinguishable from the variability due to natural causes.
Our main conclusions are:
Likelihood Statements
The terminology here for likelihood statements generally follows the conventions used in the IPCC assessments, i.e., for the assessed likelihood of an outcome or result:
Very Likely: > 90%,
Likely: > 66%
More Likely Than Not (or Better Than Even Odds) > 50%
It is premature to conclude that human activities–and particularly greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming–have already had a
detectable impact on Atlantic hurricane or global tropical cyclone activity. That said, human activities may have already caused changes that are not yet
detectable due to the small magnitude of the changes or observational limitations, or are not yet confidently modeled (e.g., aerosol effects on regional climate).
Anthropogenic warming by the end of the 21st century will likely cause tropical cyclones globally to be more intense on average (by 2 to 11%
according to model projections for an IPCC mid-range scenario). This change would imply an even larger percentage increase in the destructive potential per storm, assuming no reduction in storm size.
There are better than even odds that anthropogenic warming over the next century will lead to an increase in the occurrence of very intense tropical cyclones globally–an increase that would be substantially larger in percentage terms than the 2-11% increase in the average storm intensity. This increase in intense storm occurrence is
projected despite a likely decrease (or little change) in the global numbers of all tropical cyclones. However,
there is at present only low confidence that such an increase in very intense storms will occur in the Atlantic basin. Anthropogenic warming and accompanying increase in atmospheric moisture content will likely cause future tropical cyclones to have substantially higher average rainfall rates than present-day tropical cyclones,
with a model-projected increase of about 10-15% for rainfall rates averaged within about 100 km of the storm center by the end of the 21st century.
Sea level rise–which very likely has a substantial human contribution to the global mean observed rise according to IPCC AR5–should be causing higher storm surge levels for tropical cyclones that do occur,
all else assumed equal.
My point here is just to point out...as others have already....that all of this hype is based on computer models that have proven wrong for several decades.
