So, the "once in five hundred years" flooding that we got around here fifteen years ago seems to be close to happening again, with a couple tornadoes around the state thrown in.
Is the weather completely fucked where you are?
― mh, Thursday, 12 June 2008 20:16 (4 years ago) Permalink
Yes, but not so violently fucked as that. We're stuck in la Nina mode and it is still early April weather in mid-June.
The big thing to remember about climate change is that as the atmosphere gains heat it gains energy. Weather has always been changeable. Now it will change more rapidly and sometimes more violently. Pressure and temperature gradients will be steeper. This speeds things up and makes the collisions more energetic.

absolutely. and notice how the bbc weather people aren't admitting it - its like they are afraid to admit it, given that it will depress everyone. but its so obvious given the steady stream of low pressure weather fronts that come up from the SW and just sit there giving us the constant cloud/rain. all of which means i'm sat in my home office with t-shirt/long sleeve t-shirt, and a bloody fleece in july.

xposts I'm implying that the BBC--the BBC!--should know that Montenegro gained its independence from Serbia more than two years ago. 'Podgorica, Serbia and Montenegro' makes as much sense as saying 'Sarajevo, Yugoslavia'.
― G00blar, Friday, 18 July 2008 20:11 (4 years ago) Permalink
I read it as a 3 item list because Podgorica is part of Montenegro.
― Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Friday, 18 July 2008 20:26 (4 years ago) Permalink
This is why I teach my students to put a comma after every item in a list, even if there is an 'and'.
― G00blar, Friday, 18 July 2008 20:28 (4 years ago) Permalink
Anyway, yeah, 'Serbia and Montenegro' was the name of a country until May of 2006, when Montenegro gained its independence. They are now, thankfully, two separate sovereign nations.

I am in Oxfordshire five miles from the Gloucestershire border, and today was roasting but grey until 5:45, when there was 40 minutes of torrential rain and thunderstorms. It has now returned to being roasting and grey. PLEASE GET COLDER NOW please please please.
I have a week's worth of leave which needs using and I have been typing very northerly places into the BBC website's world weather section and mostly being disappointed that Sweden and Finland are also above 25 degrees.
