WYorksWeather that's what hs2 was designed to do not only passenger capacity but also freight capacity

You see more electric vans in urban areas because this is where the majority of van journeys are made. Most trade people and delivery's occur within a 20 to 30 mile radius of there main location.

9.0 and 110mm -
TonyH Why 90%? I can tell you now if you had a 90% reduction man would not exist. Utter baloney.

raz.org.rain We are seeing population decline which has absolutely nothing to do with climate change. World population levels are predicted to peak in the next 50 years tops then decline part of the natural cycle especially as women become more independent and not at the behest of men.

Population will collapse because we all become better off. If it wasn't for immigration the UK population would already be in decline.

One issue I have in regard to the whole climate change discussions is that each element of emission is taken in isolation without a fully rounded discussion on consequence. An example is electric cars. As a singular subject electric cars are less polluting in carbon terms that petrol or diesel in regard to emissions. However this carbon cycle needs to factor in also the degradation to our roads due to increased weight hence the need for greater/more often renewal. The additional pollution of greater tire degradation and thus greater tire wear. The need to change battery assemblies at least once in the life time of the vehicle. If you added the whole carbon cycle I am certain electric vehicles wouldn't look so attractive.

6.4 and 70mm although I would prefer a warmer and drier month I can't see it happening -
Snow and Ice Northern Hemisphere - Winter 23 /24
jonboy replied to Midlands Ice Age's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Midlands Ice Age for what its worth we know that snow fall can help in the formation of sea ice. We have seen this winter an increase in the intensity of both rainfall and snowfall which I would suggest is a result of the extra water vapour in the stratosphere, as a result of Hunga Tonga, making its way back to earth. This increase in intensity of any early snowfall would in my opinion have helped in the early ice formation this year. We may well see this next year also but thereafter unlikely. -
toggerob not from the sunspot that is bristling with energy for x class flares but departing sunspot 3575 close call today!!

Polar Maritime And just about as earth facing as possible. it will be interesting to see what impacts it has.

I do find it interesting how much hype some people put on this cold spell give any snow fall is transient and for the most part Restricted to higher elevation. I want snow to lower elevation for a week then it might be worth talking about

I see GB news are quoting Netweater charts for the 800mile wide snow event that is coming!!! -

Snow and Ice Northern Hemisphere - Winter 23 /24
jonboy replied to Midlands Ice Age's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Given the depth of cold modelled in the area for the next few weeks it will be interesting to see how much sea ice we get in that area and the baltic sea. Given that we have talk of the hottest year on record due to man induced climate change (personally I think the effect of hunga tonga is ignored for political reasons) then the amount of sea ice is extraordinary. Keep up the great work MIA this is such a thought provoking thread.
