Why is the weather for my whole life NORMAL weather?

Your telling me to defy my experience and my own eyes!
But it is not. Warming continues every year. It has been twenty or thirty years since a year was not one of the ten hottest years ever to date.

Oops, probably closer to 40. And there is no sign that that will end. One hot year is "weather" a continued trend is climate. You are like the frog in a pot of water. The climate has been slowly getting warmer so you did not notice it.

And according to this, it admits a pause.

Why did Earth’s surface temperature stop rising in the past decade? | NOAA Climate.gov

But, humans did not pause driving vehicles.

And unlike a frog, i can observe and reason.

Every summer, the heat is in normal range. Now, if it gets up to 120, then ill start thinking something weird is going on. But, its always in normal ranges.

First: you can only watch the weather at your doorstep. We call that anecdotal evidence. It counts for nothing in face of global, independent, recorded data.
Second: peoples memory is notoriously unreliable. You may live in an area that wasn't effected by global warming and your memory may be sharp but a look in the recorded data of your nearest weather station has an even better memory. (And again, that is only local.)

Did you read it? I don't think you understood it. It said the warming slowed during that period. It did not "pause". The first sentence rebuts your claim:

"Since this article was last updated, the slowdown in the rate of average global surface warming that took place from 1998–2012 (relative to the preceding 30 years) has unequivocally ended."

Did you see that? It was a "slowdown" not a pause. And worse yet, that slowdown is over. And the average temperatures are not in "normal range". You are thinking in terms of weather and not in terms of climate. Climate is the average. That has increased. Like I said, you are just like that frog. The temperature has been increasing slowly and you have not noticed it.

By the way, if you want to claim that you can reason you need to do a better job. Please try to learn the difference between climate and weather.

EDIT: A bit more from the article. What actually "paused" was the acceleration of rate of warming. Not only had it been warming but it has been warming faster and faster. If one goes by temperature per decade the warming at record pace has been going on for even longer:

". Yet despite the halt in acceleration, each of the last three decades has been successively warmer at the Earth’s surface than any preceding decade since 1850."

Each decade has been warmer since the previous one except for a glitch from the 1940's since 1900. And if you read the article it told you where the heat from AGW went. In case you did not know the ocean is warming slowly too. For that period due to various factors more of the heat was taken up by the oceans than other periods. Warming did not stop. It was merely redirected temporarily.

Like i said, if the temperature gets up to 120, then ill start thinking something weird is going on. Until then, NOPE. Hell, even 115.

Pause, slow down, why even a slow down? Cars and trucks havent slowed down.

If the temperature would go up to 120 where you live on a regular basis then it's already to late and humanity is screwed.

You will probably already be dead by then so how about you stop making it harder for future generations? K thx bai

so according to your logic Scientific evidence is not enough to convince you. What’s going to convince you is extreme weather, you know the type of weather you only see in disaster movies.
