Extreme Weather

There has been extreme weather striking the States. Blizzards, record snow fall, kiiler tornados in Georgia and Alabama. What do you all think of this? Think our world is going through a change?

It's all to do with climate change. Either that or extreame weather happens once every few (hundred?) thousand years. I guess it's that time of change, or global warming. Who's to know? All I know is that there are cyclones here, hurricanes there, and me looking outside at a cow flying past thinking to myself - "It's going to be another one of those days..."

Yesterday, here in Mount Pleasant Michigan we had freezing rain just about all day. In the afternoon, it snowed a little bit and there were a few big booms of thunder. Not sure I've ever experienced that before.

Weather in all of its extremes is just more proof of nature's randomness.

It rained this morning. That's about it for the past week. It sucks. I want some more snow.

We had a nice storm here in Toronto last night. I lost power from about 2 am to 9 am. I had to use my DS Lite to navigate to my bathroom at 4 in the morning.

It's been nice here in South Florida, but in Orlando, there were tornados a few weeks ago. Weather, it really is proof that humans have total control over nothing.

Snowed so much in the passes here that it caused a 60 car wreck the other day!

It also snowed here in the lowlands.... Lakewood RARELY gets snow and in the last couple months we've had like 10 inches. Some of which stayed on the ground for 2 weeks! รด,0

The other day it Graupeled (large clumps of snow that resemble hail...but it's not hail). Got an inch within a couple minutes. That was the first time I've ever seen Graupel snow (only reason I even know what it was cuz they said on the news)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graupel

And all I have to say about this is... The danged Groundhog lied!! *shakes fist at Puxuwany Phil*

For the past several weeks in northern Utah, the weather's been really indecisive, like it's ready for spring but not done unloading snow yet. You know, 50 degrees and sunny one day, and you wake up to three inches of snow the next morning. Eventually it'll kick over to full-on spring, but I suppose it's not ready yet.
