A recent report claims that global warming will spawn more extreme weather events such as last March's rains in New England and big snowstorms like the so-called "Snowmageddon" that paralyzed the mid-Atlantic region last winter. With every degree Fahrenheit increase in air temperature, the atmosphere can hold 4 percent more water vapor. A storm developing in a region with more water vapor to hold onto has more moisture to use as rain or snow. [Source: Cape Cod Times]
