When looking at climate change, what happens to seasonal temperatures and weather patterns is a likely symptom. But those symptoms are not proof of climate change since they have occurred when there was no evidence of climate change. They are correlations, at best. But not exclusive correlations.

Yes, I do not mean to imply a rapid swing in temperature is evidence of anything. However, "climate change" is really a more energetic weather system. So although it may not be evidence of anything it may be indicative of what we might expect in the future. Also, this swing is from Chicago to NYC, it is a very large swath of the US.
