Title: Best wishes for Brit friends, others
Post by: mthrockmor on January 04, 2014, 09:30:39 PM
Some serious weather coming down the pike. Ghi posted on the massive Polar Vortex that is going to hit the Midwest and east coast of the US. This just happened to the UK and I think that Polar Vortex may hit the UK as well.

Not good.

As you guys both no doubt know, as it's been discussed on here quite recently, the climate change models predict weather extremes.

Meanwhile, we've had the hottest year on record down here, up from the previous record set all the way back in 2005.

cool website Ghi, 

We've had alot of rain and gusts but not sure it is anything out of the ordinary more than happy to be 10Celsius compared to a week of snow and ice like the last couple of years.   It's my birthday today so I usually remember what it is like.   

US weather has been much worse hope you guys wrap up warm.

I live on the west coast of Ireland and we've been hammered by one storm after another for the last few weeks exposed as we are to the full extent of the Atlantic. A lot of damage has been done to coastal areas. I have some impressive videos of waves crashing over the sea wall and flooding down the street. But at least it's not cold not like in the US at the moment. Apparently it's all related, all part of the same weather systems. Never experienced anything like it before.

One thing I don't believe is that it's all the fault of man made climate change. Of course that myth suits doomsayers and the people with an agenda. But the truth is that this is weather no more no less.  It's the height of human arrogance and hubris to believe that we humans have caused this kind of weather. Are we now Gods who make the wind blow and the snow to fall? To me it's quite the opposite, if anything the Earth is putting us in our place. We are nothing to the Earth, mere insects scuttling around on it's surface to be swept away at it's pleasure.

The notion that we can control the Earth's climate is laughable or it would be if it weren't so serious.
