  1. We're still finding life here and in the unlikeliest of places: There must be something out there?
  2. It was only ever going to last two or three days, anyway!
  3. Hmm: China floods: Torrential rains in Hebei province leave 10 dead WWW.BBC.CO.UK The flooding has devastated homes and submerged entire districts and farmlands.
  4. Well, it looks as if the next 10 days ought to be okay.
  5. Sunny and 22C. I'm off out to buy some provisions.
  6. You wouldn't get a headline like that these days!
  7. Hopefully not, H. I've just checked the data for here: 17C, cloudy with RH at close to 100%. You're nae the only one who's sweating.
  8. I think the only thing we do know is that our continued GHG emissions will continue to warm the globe; if, somehow, they don't, we'll need to learn a new form of thermodynamics. Personally, I believe our most significant problems will be caused by feedback mechanisms, many of which are as yet unknown.
  9. It was similar in MK. I thought I was going blind! The CBs were seven miles high, if I remember correctly?
  10. And all those a/c units duly pump all their excess heat and GHGs out into the environment?
  11. Well, apart from an hour or so's moderate rain, Storm Antoni has, so far, delivered precisely NOTHING! PS: Other than a day of utter grot!
  12. Crikey, that's some hail! German city hit by massive hail storm WWW.BBC.CO.UK Hail formed 30cm drifts in Reutlingen requiring snowploughs to be deployed, at the height of summer.
  13. 14C here at the mo. I'm waiting for whatever's out west to arrive.
  14. Have you been lulled into a false sense of security, Si?
  15. Well, I'm a firm believer in the Gaia Hypothesis, that the Earth responds to major disturbances (whether they be due to plate tectonics, asteroid impacts or an over-abundance of certain kinds of life forms) by potentially falling off a cliff, and that is why there have already been five mass extinctions.
  16. It's more than possible that space-faring aliens don't even exist?
  17. Red Admiral butterflies: Climate change sees migratory species stay in UK, says charity WWW.BBC.CO.UK Conservation charity says climate change means migratory species is increasingly staying in the UK.
  18. Well, having escaped rather lightly with July's grot, today is positively horrible: 17C and wall-to-wall grey!
