Strong earthquake, flood, storm, early snow ??

[cinguear]

Its seem really weird for year 2011, too many disaster happening which had never had before happens. What is going on with mother-earth.

1. Early Snow on Halloween. Which turn into Snow Halloween.
2. Strong Earthquake at country that seldom have had before in history
3. Flood over country which takes weeks to months to recover
4. Strong Storm and wind coming over...
What on earth is going on?

Seems to go in cycles IMHO. Last time we had snow before Halloween was 20 years ago. Snowed twice this year before halloween. Been wet the last few days too.

Who knows. Could be due to climate change (or as what other people refer to it as global warming) that is causing these. To be honest there is more snow in the UK during the Christmas period over the last 2 - 3 years than for many years, and this could be due to climate change that is occurring...who knows. In regards to earthquakes, well they're bound to happen eventually in an earthquake-prone country or zone. It's a shame they occur (and cause human and other animal deaths) but it is a reality we have to face living on Earth.

Youre right on the earthquakes, they will always happen when the earth moves.

We never have them here but we had one 2hrs to the west and one 80 miles to the north of me, and as I said we "never" had them.

As for the weather, they never did it back home but they seem to just be changes. All our records were like 50 years old etc, and the ones that go back further date 50 years or so before that record was set.

I dont buy into global warming, I think earth has her cycles. Can what we do speed it up, possibly but is it all happening because of us no, definitely not.

I've had enough rain and wind to last me all 2012 lol .

You are far too lucky .

I am right now yeah, weve gotten down to -20C here several times this winter I think.

There was last year too where we were a month below freezing, and 3 weeks in the -20C range. Now THAT was hell. I remember when it got to about 3C for the first time after that and I was out in a shorts n tshirt walking my dog. It felt like summer compared to -20C
