WTF is up with the weather?

Easy Mac · 11-21-2005, 09:29 PM

We're having some weird weather down here in Charleston. One day, it's in the 70's, the next it's in the 50's. One day its perfectly sunny and calm, the next we have record rainfall and wind gusts over 60 mph. There was a 2.4 earthquake about 30 miles away. We had tornado watches/warnings (the lesser one) yesterday throughout the county, and there hasn't been a tornado in November in a decade, and even that was a water spout that lasted like 7 seconds.

What the hell is going on with the weather? With all the hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunami's, insanely weird temperature shifts over night, there's definitely something screwy with the climate. Is it just one of those weird, once in a lifetime occurrences where everything just sort of happens in one fail swoop, or is this the beginning of a shift of more severe/random weather (whether caused by man or just a progressive climate shift).

Anyone else experiencing some weird weather lately. From everything I've heard about the system coming through here, it's supposed to dump snow in the mountains, then turn into a hellish noreaster, whatever the hell that actually is.

The weather sucks.
I think that's all that really needs to be said.

These shifting weather patterns and changing pressure really make my ankle throb.

It is God's way of reminding us that our fate is not entirely in our hands.

Our highs are normally right around freezing in late November. This week, the forecast is for the mid-60's. If this is global warming, keep it coming.

We've been all over the map. We hit 33 for a low the night Wilma passed through South Florida, then we were in the mid-to-upper 80s for the next few weeks, and now we're bouncing between lows in the 30s/40s and highs in the 60s-80s. It's easy to get sick when you're going from 81 to 36.
