Re: Conveyor belt of storms
The conveyor belt is going to hit us on Tuesday and then another one about Friday. The weather has gone mad. My friends son lives in Denver, USA and he has been there since 1984 and said he has never known anything as cold as it is at the moment. California are suffering a drought with only 16per cent of snow falling on the Mountains. They live off the melted snow in the Summer and they are now facing a very severe drought if it doesn't snow. South Australia is on fire again and even Rome has had flooding.
Cant remember all of this in my years on Earth unless no one mentioned it before.
We do have to live with our weather but this last few years has taken us all aback I think as it has been so severe but hit us very quickly.
Think we might all have to move to Spain

Wow, snow in Arizona? That almost seemed to me the hottest place on earth!BE, you're right, the weather certainly has gone mad. It's like the on switch or the thermostat control have got stuck, and they all need rebooting. Wish we had an answer.
My dear old mum used to always blame Maggie Thatcher!

Re: Conveyor belt of storms
That's it then we are all agreed Spain here we come.Saturday we saw the sun it was beautiful out which made a change but by late afternoon the storms came again and I thought at one point one of the block of fencing was going to snap down the middle it was quite scary. The fencing is 6 ft so we let our neighbour know so that they could keep an eye on it as well.

Re: Conveyor belt of storms
Ania darlin' the 'conveyor belt' as you call it is merely the 'jet stream', which. this year has 'fixed' itself further South than it normally should be, hence the storms hurtling across the Atlantic, instead of travelling further North into the Arctic, have crashed into us here in Eire and the UK, which is why we are now under so much water and flooding.10-02-2014, 03:59 PM
