oh ye weather gods

[rynnor]

I'm thinking we have a cruddy cold summer ahead

 

[Yoni]

Up until today the weather in Stockholm has been really good!

 

[TdC]

yup. freezing my nuts off the past two weeks. had the heating on several times, workies has the heating on. out to dinner with a lady friend this evening and the place we had foods also had the heating on. Trams had heating on and the train certainly had heating on because I practically had to strip down to my fave party-boy sparkly spangled thong it was that hot Summer in 4 weeks iirc.

*dons Michael fish hat*

Apparently the Gulf Stream (umm, that's a private jet isn't it?) - the Jet Stream is too far south (something about TdC scaring it with his knobbly knees...?) which means its dragged low pressure down. Low pressure = shit weather = no summer this year. Again. Joy

Oh, and Andy Murray: when you get knocked out of Wimbledon this year by the ball boy on Practice Court 14, don't blub please. Go take a McEnroe Injection, whack your opponent with the racket, mount the horny 18 year old Russian female champion and pound her like Geoff Capes making pastry. Then flick a fist full of cum at your girlfriend before storming off like a pro.

It's bloody *freezing*. It's the south of France and it's nearly June. Fuck off rain and wind and general coldness.

This shit weather is going to hang around for at least a week.

 

[Raven]

So can they all stfu about global warming now then?

Its max 10 degrees C here today but in the rain and the wind it could easily pass for January...

 

[rynnor]

It needs to be cold for a decade or so for that really - which may just happen but it would be wrong to try to pin short term weather conditions to any particular theory.

Not that it stops anyone - this weeks Tornado in the states was blamed on global warming even though it happened in Tornado Alley and studies have not shown any increases in hurricane storms in recent decades.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Finland, couple of days of rain(still warm enough), before that scorching and the bastard seems to be coming from behind the clouds again.

 

[Raven]

Some guy at work who is into his weather patterns and shit reckons it's going to be crap for the next few years. Was crap last year and so-so the year before.

 

[Zarjazz]

Obviously we need to put even more Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere.

 

[rynnor]

The crazy little weather man who lives in my phone is saying it will be nice here tomorrow - 11 hours of sunshine and a high of 16 C followed by 18C on sunday.

Revised today down to max 9 C now though...

 

[old.Tohtori]

Blame hippies, trying to save the ozone and freeze us to death.

That depends on whether or not you can tell the difference between GLOBAL warming and local temperatures.

That depends on whether or not you can tell the difference between GLOBAL warming and local temperatures.

Global temp is just a composite of local temperatures though and global is a bit of a misnomer as the datasets disproportionately cluster in the US and other developed countries but hey.

As I understand it this year has been cool in the whole northern hemisphere.

 

[Raven]

Yep, shit all over.

you're talking thursday afternoons right? isn't this what everyone does?


also...knobby knees?

 

[caLLous]

Ok, normal service has resumed - 28 degrees today and not a cloud in the sky.

That is all.

Apparently according to some, the black widow spider has emigrated to Sweden due to the warmer climate. I loved Sweden for its lack of these toxic spiders, but oh well.

Same in the UK - Black Widows can thrive just about anywhere that's not a desert or the arctic and with humans transporting them all over the globe they will end up one of the super global species.

To hell with this cack weather. Its almost the middle of June, and right now its raining and windy as fuck.
I want proper summers back please.

 

[Raven]

Supposed to be off camping this weekend and for once my mates insistence on having a toilet has fucked it up. Rain is OK if you are in the woods with a tarp. Fucking sucks if you are sat in the middle of a field with only a tent.

 

[rynnor]

Good weather for snails though - I'm doing a rare snail survey tomorrow so its great!

 

[Yoni]

We drove to the summerhouse by the lake last night and today the sun has shone, been swimming * grins*. Sadly tomorrow rain is forecast, but at least we are driving back to the city so it doesn't matter so much.

 

[Edmond]

Its been coming in sideways all afternoon here (south east) it's shit

 

[Hawkwind]

I'd love to swap some of that cooler weather with you. 38 deg and 85% humidity over the weekend. Don't mid the heat but any humidity that high and I just sweat, hate it. Still, off to Sri Lanka in two weeks for a long overdue break. 2 days in Colombo, 4 days in the mountains at a tea plantation, then 2 more weeks surfing on the SE side. So looking forward to it and need to recharge the batteries after a tough few months of hard work. Still, all paid off as we won two big contracts. Plus just got my annual bonus statement and pay rise. So celebratory meal at Mrs Migging's pie shop tonight or something like that.

 

[Yoni]

Perfect yesterday

 

[Starman]

Very nice Yoni - rather nice in the mornings this weekend but come afternoon it is all overcast, dreary with on off rain showers.
