Seems like mother nature is angry with us .

Last year a exsplosion of desert blooms in Death Vally. Records set in 1998 was brken in 2004 . In 1998 there were 1424 tornados, in 2004 there were 1817 ,most ever.

Kansas 124, Iowa 120 ,Nebraska 110 ,S.Carolina 84 ,Vaginia all set records.

Then of course sunomi and hurrianes .
May 22nd Hallen NC cut thru 2.5mle-wide-tornado widest documented path on record .

They are exspecting more action with hurricanes this year .

I'm actually looking forward to the Hurricane coming over to my home in Houston and dumping a few feet of water onto my parched lawn.

LOL, is it that dry there ? Ithought you had too much rain .

No way, grass is dying and it isn't even August. :mad:

Hope you get rain soon, without the damage . :eek7:

I think I spelled 'predictions' wrong. Wwheres the spell police when I need them ? I do like instruction,especially when it's needed .

Sun flares may be in future . Do any of you have info on this ?

Could they use microwaves to heat up oceans to stop hurricanes from hitting land ? They say they can .But what about the after affects ?

Weather Perditions Looking Dim

Y'know, I saw Road to Perdition. Great film. Is "weather perditions" the sequel?

Toronto's weather is complete ass. Rainy in the fall and spring, either cold and dry or lukewarm and slushy in the winter, hot and humid and smoggy in the summer.

The rest of Canada, aside from Victoria, which I just left, is much the same: Manitoba has 10 months of winter and 2 of lousy skiing, for instance.

It's Mother Nature's way of saying we ****ed up her garden.

By the way, Death Valley also had something this past Winter that it hasn't had in (I think) over a hundred years.

Water.

The salt lake beds had measurable water in them due to the excessive rainfall. These lake beds are national park lands specifically because the salt floors are all that remain of the enormous lakes (seas, almost) that once encompassed a large portion of the region before it became semi-arid or arid desert land.

Considering this planet has seen many climate changes in its 4.5 billion year history, included drastic ones (ever hear of the ice age?) I am not really that alarmed. All we can do is try to minimize our impact on the effect and roll with the punches.

Looks like this generation is getting the ol, one two punch . :eek7:

I never wouldv'e thought cananda was humid , but guess it is because of all the water .

I wonder where the most less humid place is in the southest ? Anyone know ? What state around N.Georgia ? Is Tenn. humid ? The older I get the less I can take humidity .

What water? We border the same oceans you do, save the arctic. We get the same weather as cities in the US close to our border.

Last week in Montreal it was 30+ here and was 40+ with the humidex. (Do not know the numbers in your archaic system. LOL )

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but canada has alot more water than we do . Mountains and snow melts , plus oceans and mountain stream lakes and rivers.

Mountains melt? LOL I think I know what you meant. ;) So you do not get snow in the US?

But the most humid area is from close to the Great Lakes (Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal). I would be Detroit has the same weather as some Canadian cities. But I do not know - I am not a meteorologist.

My point is that Canada, just like the US, is a big country with areas of various climate. You cannot sum up our climate in one word, just as you cannot sum up yours.

Wheres your sub tropics at ? Just kidding with you . I se water everywhere when I look at Cananda on map. I always wanted to visit ,heard it was beautiful.

LOL got us there - no sub tropics. :) We have a lot of lakes, sure, but not really any bodies of water in the interior that are big enough to have a large impact on the weather. Canada is a great place to visit, and I hope that some day you do. I have seen a lot of the US, but there is a lot more I would like to. Have never been down Arizona or Texas way, and I really liked what I saw of Massachusetts and would like to see more.

I live less than a half a mile from the largest landlocked body of water on the face of the planet. A lake that size will affect your weather. It helps keep us cool in the summertime, but in the winter we have to put up with the lake effect snows.

One of my favorite stories: years ago, I took my step-son, who was then 8 or 9, to see the shores of Lake Michigan for the first time, (he had grown up in Idaho, so he didn't know what big water was all about).

He stood on the beach and his little eyes got so round, and he said, "Oh, Lisa! Is this an Ocean?" I couldn't help but laugh and say, "well..............?"

Best time to visit is early spring . Most hurricane and tornados are almed down then. Plus it's not too hot or cold . Hopefully the desert won't be blooming then also. desert soundin good here in south. It's been raining for months and clammy .

Kids are funny about first seeing large bodies of water . First time my son saw ocean he was two ,and he kept falling down from trying to run so hard to get away . His sisters hugged him and told him not to worry .

Have any of you heard about microwaves to turn hurricanes back from shore ?

Read a scifi book on it once, but I think that it is a case of the amount of energy involved to heat up a chunk of ocean sufficiently to turn a hurricane, being beyond our capabilities, do the math - it takes a fair sized power station, then of course you would get the climatic after effects of large chunks of hot water in odd places. (Monsoon, anyone?)

Those 'lake effect' storms can be real killers. I've had the 'pleasure' of being caught in several of them over the years while driving around up there.

A guy I used to work with moved down here from up there. He came in from the east instead of through Kansas, and didn't realizr how flat and barren it was when he first got here, and one day he was driving around west of Dallas, and was driving along the back roads. He popped up over this hill out of a tree line and locked his brakes up in a panic, nearly killing himself, because he saw water and thought he driving off into a lake. The lake was still a mile off, but he still had his 'Michigan terrain' reflexes working, and when you see that much blue sky up there, you're heading into water pretty damn fast. LOL

Those 'lake effect' storms can be real killers. .....

Yeah, we had 22 and a half feet of snow last year alone, and that was a mild winter.

But then again, as I pointed out in another thread, when I look out my kitchen window, I have a fabulous view. And that, I would not trade for all the worlds.

The heat index here was 109F today. I AM HOT, HOT, HOT, BOILING HOT....
