  1. Not going to bother Waxing my board.... It's time to get a new one!! And then wax that one lol....
  2. Looks good, but I don't expect it to carry on right through to winter. October is still too early for lasting snow. All it takes is one of those pesky deep south westerlies to put us back to square one lol.. But non the less, Bring on the Snow!
  3. Awesome!! I'm desperate to get on my snowboard this year. Hopefully I won't have to go to far afield and can hit the slopes up north. Bring on the Winter!!! Bring on the snow!
  4. http://www.express.co.uk/news/weather/614135/weather-warning-first-snow-of-winter-this-weekend-UK-storm-alert And just when you thought it was safe to come in here Mwhahaha!
  5. This storm looks Wrath of God epic in terms of size and strength. I would not want to be too close to this thing.
  6. If it was winter right now, the current set up would provide lots of lovely cold temps and the odd snow shower. The snow gains are looking good.
  7. The Alaska - Eastern Russia side of the globe is seeing lots of big gains. Nice to Scandi turning whiter too. October is usually an exciting month in this thread.
  8. Not to mention the movie The Martian is out next Wed. I've read the book and it's a bloody good read. I've head the movie is the best Ridley Scott Movie in years!
  9. Likely if that is the case, every nasa scientist will be shouted down as blasphemous by every extremist no matter what religion they belong to. The Earth is flat and we are the center of the universe
  10. I think the concession that there is flowing water (seasonal perhaps) is already quite strong. I don't see this just being a "confirmation". Where there's water, there's life. I would say 70% chance there is some microbiol presence in the briny stuff. The little buggers can survive just about anywhere.
  11. Ok, but as humans, we can distinguish the two root causes of CO2 in the atmosphere. As you say, natural and man made. Aside from CO2, there are plenty of other elements which are IMO, worse than CO2 such as NOXs and Ozones. CO2 can be moped up by organic life, these other elements will hang around and cause damage to the environment.
  12. Those charts put things into perspective some what. Maybe the warmer water has been diverted and is driving the El Nino somehows..
  13. The climate is constantly changing, over a hundreds of years. I wish these bunker nuts would not bat climate change about like a hot potato. What I believe they are referring to is man made global warming. Two completely different beasts.

  18. Well that's very interesting. Especially the part.. What I took away from that is the general expectation is that the colder N.Atlantic is conducive to a colder winter here in the UK.
  19. The colour profiles are very misleading if you don't look at the scale. The warmer areas are roughly only 1 - 1.5C above normal, yet the dark red patches do give the impression of 'Severe warmth' lol.
  20. Lol True, but I think they holywood - ed it up. There's no way that could happen in that time frame?? If the AMOC came to a grinding halt, would we get a climate more suited to our latitude, or would the Jet Stream still keep things temperate?
  21. I remember Oct 12 brought a lot of hill snow to the highlands, and after the two previous winters,the papers went ballistic saying the end of the world was nigh! And I wasn't the only one that was suckered into getting my hopes up lol.
  22. That's outrageous. I guess it's no coincidence then that the extreme winters of 09 and 10 coincided with this event. This winter is going to be interesting what ever happens. The strong El Nino coupled with the cold North Atlantic could really disrupt the jet stream.
  23. True there are loads of migrants / refugees coming to Europe, but I would like to think that they would have better chance in Europe. As a developed region, we could easily accommodate people and provide basic shelter which is harder to do when they are in refugee camps in some no mans land in the middle east / africa. Even winter in Syria can get get quite cold. Mainland Europe gets colder winters too, but it would be shocking if European Governments couldn't get there act together and left a few thousand people out in the cold.
