NBC's Al Roker went where many on air weather people are scared to go.

Roker said that much of the flooding in the Northeast and other places is do to "climate change."

Of course, talking about climate change is more a political problem than a weather problem. Many on the left believe that climate change is happening, while many others on the right think it is nothing more than made up. 

So, for that reason, many weather folks keep their thoughts in climate change to themselves for fear of the backlash from one side or the other. 

Roker stepped out of the flood waters and stepping into the political waters with his latest forecast.
