What's Ya Weather At?

[Mr_Slot5]

I'll just add, I think people may well be very thankful for global warming in a few hundred or so years when the next ice age is triggered...because it is very likely to be triggered sooner rather than later!

Extrapolation from previous glacial periods suggests we're due to be plunged back into a glacial period WITHIN 1500 years. A mere speck in time away. Could be even sooner if Yellowstone volcano goes off...

'
''The most wide reaching effect of a Yellowstone eruption would be much colder weather.
Volcanoes can inject sulphur gas into the upper atmosphere, forming sulphuric acid aerosols that rapidly spread around the globe. Scientists believe sulphuric aerosols are the main cause of climatic cooling after an eruption.''

We'll be all wanting to move south closer to the equator, it's a fascinating prospect - a new glacial ice age - that film a few years back was about that happening, would the hot areas of the planet get even hotter in an ice age I wonder? scrap that I've just looked it up, everywhere gets colder apparently, in a way you could see it happening so as to cool the hottest parts of the earth.

I used to be interested in the GAIA theory by james lovelock in the 90's, the earth self regulating itself, I can't remember a lot of it though now ...this planet is an amazing place, how it all works together to sustain life.
[I'm not sure why lots of other planets haven't got seas and plenty of water ]

The dinosaurs died out, not sure the full reason is understood, but must've been due to some change on the earth, so we're not guaranteed a trouble free/human life friendly situation moving forward either.

First snowy day today here, woooohooo

Happy like a kid

 

[Lucky Loser]

Count yourselves lucky. It's super hot here in Adelaide, Australia 38 degrees at 7.20pm!!! Most of us are literally melting.

 

[dionysus]

9 degrees with a rainfall warning in effect, grass as green as spring
generally around now its in the minus 20s

 

[Steviedoo]

Rain and Freezing rain tonight.
Bracing ourselves for Uber ice storm of the year.

I found a caterpillar on my doorstep today. Its January. We're supposed to be in a deep freeze and under a gazillion feet of snow ... sigh... but climate change is not real.

 

[dionysus]

Floods knocked the power out for the evening, just back on now
Silly, lazy ass me, had napped, was reading in bed and tablet died, thought fuggit, I'll chatge it when i wake
Woke, power was out
D'oh, that'll teach me

 

[dionysus]

man, had such a rotten pressure headache last night; head was slamming, i felt freezing, had to crank the heat and all the fireplaces
had a 430am blazing hot shower for about an hr til i was melted jelly and finally passed out mercifully
calls for an extreme cold warning today, guess that's why
temperature has been all over the place...from pluses to calling for -24 today not including windchill

 

[dionysus]

Fun
about 5 min after posting all the power went out
Gonna be a cold one indoors too lol

 

[rena35]

Welcome to the weird. 70 degree weather on Monday. Tornado warnings on Tuesday. Snow on Thursday. Hot on Friday...back to 70's . Snow on Sunday. Hot on Tuesday Etc. Today it is cold 47 degrees. I wonder will we be hot , cold or dodging tornadoes next week :axeman2:

 

[Mr_Slot5]

Large parts of England and Wales under water. I feel so sorry for people who have had their houses flooded out.

If we have a wet summer, some places will be in continued serious trouble with flooding this year.

 

[Playford7]

Well In the north east we had warnings of biblical storms, winds that would blow your granny away and lightning.
We had a bit of heavy rain, some gusts that if where volatility based would be wonky wabbits and some impressive lightening.
Now we have a bit of a breeze.... the storm didn’t happen in Middlesbrough.

 

[dionysus]

at least pluses here today (+2) to get some yard work done, calls for mild tomorrow as well

I'm sure we've yet to get another blast or 3 of snow

 

[colinsunderland]

First snow this winter, not much and won't last, but snow all the same

 

[dionysus]

well, we were spoiled with a sort of mini-spring and sunshine and plus temps but going back into winter with a snowfall warning and dropping from +6 to -18 this week
slamming pressure headache; always do when a drastic shift

 

[mina1929]

Last month of summer here in AU and what a summer it has been

Bush fires, temperatures of over 40° and then followed by floods.

31° and windy at the moment.

 

[Playford7]

Calm as hell. For now

 

[Mr_Slot5]

Just had a bit of snow falling here

 

[Kroffe]

well, we were spoiled with a sort of mini-spring and sunshine and plus temps but going back into winter with a snowfall warning and dropping from +6 to -18 this week

I get the same.
Worst is when a storm is coming.
The damn changes in barometric (??) pressure always gives me a headache.
Not really fair, since alot of people are not affected at all.

 

[dionysus]

yeah, theyre pretty awful but thankfully just a handful in spring and fall

 

[Kroffe]

Still, its a pretty shitty superpower.

I have another shitty superpower.
I had rather large tonsils, wich were prone to get infections such as strep throat.
So during a couple of my teen-years i would get an almost unbearable pain in my throat every time i got a cold since they would swell up.

Since i removed them, ive become immune to the pain.
I can still get a sore throat, or strep throat etc, but the pain is like 1/10th of how it was back when i still had my tonsils, so it does not bother me at all.

That day, i turned into Notbotheredbysorethroatsanymore-man.

 

[dionysus]

ya i got tonsilitis loads; still have mine

 

[Kroffe]

ya i got tonsilitis loads; still have mine

Cut them out.
It makes a world of difference.

 

[Kroffe]

Or like, get a doctor to do it.

 

[usaoccom]

It's very cold here in Chicago Illinois.

 

[dionysus]

Cut them out.
It makes a world of difference.

im a wee bit older than you, little bear; its considered a bit more risk and high surgery

 

[dionysus]

all good though, havent had since my 20s

 

[Kroffe]

im a wee bit older than you, little bear; its considered a bit more risk and high surgery

Its a risk im willing to take!

 

[pinnit2014]

You're in safe hands with Kroffe - it'll be fine, it'll be fine

 

[dionysus]

insane winds and loads of snow, moms car got shovelled out, still snowing up a storm

calls for 25 cm/near 10 inches of snow

swapped out some fresh straw for the feral cat shelter, wished mom safe driving, cranked the heat, aint going anywhere today

 

[denis28den]

[Kroffe]

What you got to say now Dio?
Nothing?
I thought so!

 

[denis28den]

in the depths of Canada, I think the climate is similar to Siberia ! Far from the ocean, there is no humidity the cold is stronger
ahahahha Yakutia Oymyakon is a terrible place, very very cold North still the ocean is blowing !

 

[dionysus]

well, we have the North Pole and Santa; so we had to donate a few degrees all the dead elves in the tundra didnt make for a happy place

 

[Kroffe]

Im pretty sure Dio lives in the warmest place Canada has to offer.
He just acts tough.


Edit: Shit, hes here!

[dionysus]

I'm definitely not that north

 

[ternur]

Like the Moomins, Santa is inherently Finnish. He also loves metal music.
