"What's going on"? I hear people asking this question all over the place and not just on ATS. So what is going on?
Where I live we have a heat wave, temps are over 30°C and although that are perfectly normal temperatures for other parts of the world, over here it
is unusual and the people are not prepared for these temps, they don't handle it very well. Our climate is supposed to be medium. The heat is
unbarable, inside and outside.
I started living the mediteranial style, do as much as work before 10 am and nothing untill after 6 pm, the hours in between I stay indoors and try to
keep cool.
Yesterday I had pretty bad sunburn... I didn't leave the shadows! I've sat under a tree all afternoon making sure to stay out of the sun. How is
that possible?
The thunder storms, as a result of the warm weather are horrofying. I never used to be scared of a little thunder and lightning but what we are
experiencing now, over the past couple of months, I never seen it before... hell, my grandmother never saw these before! So much rain in so little
time... Last month we had a supper cell and that, also, never happened here before. People ran into the street with confused looks, these things just
don't happen on our part of the world.
In the last 4 days alone, two birds flew into my window... Other birds just sit in the middle of the road while cars try to avoid them. what's wrong
with the birds? They used to know where the windows and the cars are!+
Last winter we froze our asses off, temps -10°c below zero. Yes, that happened once before, like 50 years ago. But again, people here aren't
prepared for that.
Officials say that things aren't changing that fast and the extremes really aren't that unusual. Are they kidding us??
Other sources say it's the result of global warming we are starting to see. Is it?
Global warming, another thing. If the worst predictions are coming true then I wonder if it's time for me to move to higher ground, because where I
am right now, only water and lots more water will be left when the shtf.
For some people, maybe the majority, this is paradise right now. They apply some sunblock, jump in the swimming pool and enjoy the vacation...
as for me, Im not panicing... but I'm starting to feel afraid for what is coming.
So... what exactly is coming?
