Floods, tornadoes, record heat waves, wild fires........... you'd be hard pressed to find a news web site that didn't mention extreme weather somewhere in the world.
But we don't have a problem with climate change though, eh?

No we don't. But then, I could be wrong. Does anyone out there happen to have weather data going back 2000 years by chance?

Why yes they do.
They don't have written records like today, but they can determine weather patterns based on glacier and ice shelf samples, ground core samples, etc.
It's called paleoclimatology.
