    Whats up with the damn weather?

    Woke up this morning to about an inch of snow covering the road and houses.

    As of 10 minutes ago its hammering down with rain and we've had three claps of thunder

    Same here, the weather is, technically, knackered!

    What would be worse, is if you got caught up in it!

    typical british weather caused by global warming I'm afraid.

    yesterday was totally bizarre up here on them dar hills

    7:00 am - awoke to find 1-2" of snow in my garden and footpath
    9:00 am - arrived @ work to see no snow
    mid-morning - rainy, windy and very grey weather
    dinner time - sunny with a few gusty sessions
    evening - raining & cold

    We get the 4 seasons in one really now. Wheres the defined borders gone? I remember having WEEKS of hot days when I was about 6-10, now we're lucky if we get a day.

    I've only looked out the window so far - not actually been out yet. But when I do look out, the sun hurts my eyes, I see no snow, no puddles. and everything is completely dry. Looks like quite a nice day TBH .

    The seasons seem to have shifted round. Winter weather in spring, spring weather in summer, summer weather in autumn etc.

    global warming is a myth tbh.
    the earth's warming/cooling cycles happen every so often and we're due for a shake up right about now if you look at geology/simulations etc. I recall we were meant to be hit by an asteroid and we're overdue for that one. There is also a theory that a near-passing asteroid that occured around about xmas time has been linked in some way to the quake/tsunami on boxing day.
    I have been pondering this for sometime and I think i've hit on something fairly obvious but not perhaps to everyone. natural disasters are becoming more frequent and more deadly/violent (i say deadly because people live virtually any where on the face of this planet and get wiped out immediately when something big goes down). earthquakes have been popping up all over the place, had one in wales the other week (wtf? nothing happens in wales!), so I suspect we've not had the last of it and the earth is changing...in geological terms I think its quite rapid [and may give insights to how older civilisations came to ruin] but this world is changing with increasing frequency.
    the warms are getting warmer and the cool temperatures are getting colder - flip-flopping from one extreme to the next...

    it was snowing on wednesday morning in bristol, big fluffy nice flakes, then hail/sleet (whats the difference by the way?!) then in the afternoon/evening it was suddenly lovely and sunny! mad!

    but things are a-foot

    Well considering we have only just left winter (a week into spring) i'd consider we've still got a bit of winter weather.

    it's really sunny outside right now and it was hail stoning for about 10 minutes.

    LoL, imagine if they got over participation and it pushed the earth way out of orbit and we had the next ice age, gutted!
    I don't mean to sound cold, or cruel, or vicious, but I am so that's the way it comes out.

    I'm out here in Dubai and the weather is odd here too. It's not quite snowing, but we've had the coldest winter on record.

    It's something like 16°C! It's bloody FREEZING!!!!
