Rare or not, the horrid tornado(es) that hit London.... my heart is heavy and with you my dear dear friend. Noreen



3 time tornado survivor

Good grief!!! And people tell us that the climate is not changing! My prayers are added to yours, Noreen.

Higs, Katherine

Who says that?! Its 40 degrees Farinhiet right now in Alaska

Well, not me, for sure!

Higs, Katherine

According to the news yesterday, tornados in the UK are more common than people think, so I doubt it's climate change. Katherine, a lot of what people think is climate change is simply changes in the cycles of weather than only appear every 40 or 50 years. (shrug)

According to the Weather Channel last night this was the same storm that dumped snow and ice on the Midwest US, then moved through PA and NY and other northern states then went over to London. The UK has about

33 tornadoes every year.

Hugs,

Nora

Hey Nora - good to see you here! I've missed you, so please drop in more often (smile) yeah, yeah, I know - I have your email addy.

True, Shelagh. We tend to forget that, don't we?

Higs, Katherine

I remember that South UK already had several tornadoes in former years ,,, mirjam

Uh huh. And I just reread my last sentence and it doesn't make much sense (giggle). The last part should read "cycles of weather THAT only appear every 40 or 50 years".
