Re: 38\"

Now if you were a gent and shared your sun with me then Colchester in Essex would hit 20, and I could turn down the central heating and turn off the top up electric , and maybe even peel off the fleece top!

Good luck to you!

Re: 38\"

Without globule warming it would have been at least 60 inches.

Actually, Joe King apart, one of the supposed results of GW is more snowfall in some places because it needs to be relatively warm to snow

Re: 38\"

I can tell you it wasn't bloody warm when it was snowing this time...

Down around 15degF and blowing 30mph here in Noo Joisey when we got our regulation 15ins of fluffy white stuff on Saturday (innit funny how anything other than British Imperial units are considered un-American over here?). This is only half what the Bostonians got but then again they deserve it for being disrespectful to our tea.

It was -25F on Sunday night with the windchill, -40 at my sisters in Ontario and apparently -54 in Winnepeg. F or C, it's all the same to me when it's that cold. 1.5degC in Colchester seems positively balmy

... and yes it's all headed your way /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Global Warming. There\'s more to it than meets the eye.

If the globe warms and most of it sea, the sea warms. Evaporation increases. Clouds thicken and dump rain and snow in greater quantities, in all the usual places.

So wet places get wetter, dry places will get drier and snowy places will get snowed in. On the margins an area might become dry that used to be wet or snowy that used to be warm.

To get profound shifts, like a tropical Britain or a rainy Sahara needs movement in tidal streams.

So initially, more of the same is what global warming does.
