  1. TBH, I haven't really seen any indication of the 'Atlantic crashing through', just LP to our west (be that SW or NW) somewhere; and, there certainly is not any 2012-like northern blocking suggested...I suppose the odds-on bet would be for something, UK-wide, not too far off average. Of course, it'd only take a minor shift for us to experience either a heatwave or total garbage...
  2. There's enough energy in one stroke of lightning to cook 100,000 pieces of toast.
  3. Groan! You can dispense with all the waffle...
  4. But at least the cloud is quite convective in nature; some noticeable gaps between them.
  5. I agree, SB: some of those Junes/Julys did produce some fantastic storms...That is what I mean - don't give-up yet??
  6. And, as a result of that ( ) I offer my unconditional apology to Midlands Ice Age. Sorry mate! I have just finished putting my rattles back into my pram...
  7. I agree; but I do have the added advantage of being forever acclimated to weather in the Scottish Highlands! It's all too hot for me!
  8. I'm sure it's happened before...1972, '74, '77, '79, '80, '81, '83, '85, '88, and many others since, have also provided us with some pretty dreadful weather? Yes, it could be better, but (thinking of 2012) it could also be worse!
  9. I agree with all of that, So95...1993 was so bad that my tatties and runner-beans got frosted in July; and there was snow on the mountains nearby: my son and I have always called 1993 - the 'year without a summer'...
  10. But you haven't, have you MIA...You've produced absolutely nothing, zilch, nada? So let's see it, my friend...Let us see it!
  11. How is it that the vast majority of the world's glaciers are shrinking, flow-rates are speeding up, seal-levels are rising - blah, blah, blah; and the sceptics are still claiming the very opposite? I eagerly await the Watts-Monckton equation... Stefan, Boltzmann, Charles and Boyle were clearly wrong!
  12. On another note: the latest BBC forecast mentioned possible thundery downpours this evening!
  13. If I remember correctly, 1992 was the one that went nasty at or around St Swithin's Day, and never really recovered? 1983, however, was a different kettle of fish, entirely...
  14. And what's that supposed to demonstrate? Where are your drivers; and what are they? If it ain't GHGs what're doing it it must be something else? You cannot disprove one theory without presenting another?
  15. But I thought that this was where you 'sceptics' show us what's really happening?
  16. Well, as y'all ought to know by now, I'm reasonably well satisfied with the GHG-based explanation; but, as you seem to be in a position of absolute certainty that my explanation is fundamentally flawed, I thought that, in all fairness, it's time to give you the opportunity to present your 'absolutely certain' alternative... The floor is yours!
