I can corroborate this, living in Virginia for the last 20 years. We used to get a lot of snow when I was younger, and now we get a lot more days where the heat/humidity is almost unbearable, and a lot more storms that result in less snow, and more ice. Charlotte county recently had about 80% of their electrical infrastructure taken down by an ice storm. Not fun.

Ive attempted to explain the weather as a pendulum, the highs get higher and the lows get lower as the system attempts to find equilibrium while having energy added from outside an otherwise closed system.
