[ QUOTE ] Feburary, not May - a little less Variance in weather patters for tornados during that time frame, rock star - but hey - thanks for comparing apples and oranges - rb [/ QUOTE ] Are you a slow adult or something. Seriously. That fact that you think that was an apples to oranges comparison makes me think you have a comprehension problem. You see I was taking a 6 year period of tornado data and then using the average to compare to a large year right after it. Jut like you did in your post. The month is not relevant, because you can do it with any month. It's still called variance. Just to humor you though.. From 1966-1970 the average number or tornadoes in February was 12.8. In 1971 there were 83!!!! OMFG!!! Global Warming!!! (Except back then the theory du jour was that we were going to enter a new ice age. How'd that work out?)

Re: Weather Extremes Mean Global Warming
Average is usually taken over a 30 year period (at least for temperatures and precip)--what happens if there was only 1 tornado? Is that a harbinger of global warming or the next ice age?

Climate scaremongers jumped all over that as evidence of global warming. Last season was one of the slowest Hurricane seasons on record. Didn't hear much from the climate scaremongers. Why would that be? Is my hurricane anecdotal evidece > your tornado anecdotal evidence? No, because as others have pointed out, there is all sorts of variance in these types of numbers and they mean little in the overall scheme of the global warming "crisis" analysis. NCAces

[/ QUOTE ] It gets really warm, ice melts, more fresh water in the sea, less saline, fecks up the gulf stream Britain gets colder. Britain is warm given its northerly latitude all thanks to the gulf stream, if the GS shuts down we will have the same weather as Norway. Till that actually happens Britain will get warmer. The hottest year record has been broken several times in the last 10 years.
