    On the contrary, if that did happen (a SSW in October as shown by 3 ENS members) it would be very very interesting!  I think a Canadian warming is possible this year (early SSW), displacement of vortex early season away from Canada.  Haven’t had one for ages, I believe it increases chance of UK cold, but as the last one was before my time, someone else could perhaps comment, please?

    Indeed all academic but if it were to happen as depicted the flood gates could open end of Nov beginning of Dec  as you say very interesting

    I think it might be over now but that was a fairly good thunderstorm here. Not quite as epic as some of those we had last year but certainly not a bad effort for a year that's been really lacking in thunderstorm activity until now. Hoping for more soon.

    Yep last year will take some beating   see what Tuesday brings

    Live almost in the exact middle of the country. Love it and wish it was like this for the entire 3 months of summer.

    Each to there own snowy  a little hot for me  especially in the evenings   however certainly better than buckets of rain   one good thing for me is I live right on a wooded area  so a late evening picnic will go down a treat  perhaps Wednesday evening

    Just as a philosophical question, how would one go about proving the non-existence of life in the rest of the galaxy, let alone in other galaxies? 

    You could never get closer than indications, I would submit, and there are only two possible indications --

    -- non-existence of suitable habitats (already disproven) and

    -- non-appearance of other life forms (already disputed).

    For other galaxies we are pretty much going on the assumption that their star and therefore planet populations are similar to our galaxy (with scale being a factor, ours is one of the larger ones). There is no obvious reason why life would be more or less likely in other galaxies than in our galaxy and we already know there's life in our galaxy. 

    Its difficult   best estimates state there is around 60 billion planets in the goldilocks zone just in the milky way   odds are that some will harbour life   the number is mind-boggling if we take in the whole universe    intact some leading experts state that there are so many potential planets that could harbour life  that it  is possible that not only could humans exist on other planets  but infact there could be planets with exact replicas of oursevelves   taking various decisions that would lead to our lives panning out differently   kind of like a parrarel  earth    mind blown
