I'm relatively new here and the reason I'm here is because of the weird weather and other things going on. My research led me to ATS trying to find
answers about the rumblings we heard a few months ago. And wow, what a world of info and fabulous minds at work! In northern Utah weather has been
awful, literally no sun all winter where usually in past years it snows with blue sky and sun (so it's not so awful). But this year I swear it feels
colder than reported temps. We've had non-stop rainy days so it feels like we're living in Oregon which I think Is a beautiful state but I love the
sun and it's never out. Also off topic is that the car compass was showing North when I knew from a physical standpoint we were driving EAST; The
birds are out way past their bedtime as well. They're chirping way into the dark hours of the night, which I don't think is right. Plus the local
news reports more and more on national tornadoes, snow, quakes, and other global weather alerts. Too many abnormal things are going on, even Hawaii
has a winter weather watch active for snow, plus flooding. Strange.
Maybe it's just that modern technology makes us more aware and we have immediate access to info. Imagine having to send a letter via the Pony
Express.
But it is stunning to see what's happening around the world, weather related events, so thanks for your post: J
If you link to the below websites you can see information on current global disaster and relief efforts. This includes floods, famine and food
depletion, disease e.g. cholera is widespread in Haiti and other disease pandemics, or mudslides. There's alot of displaced people from events. Sorry
but I do not have any info or data to compare current happenings and conditions with past years.
