Let me get this straight.....they want us to cut down on eating meat because the creatures we eat,consume plant material which has been fertilised with Nitrogen based fertiliser?
Did they forget that if we all eat more veg instead of meat then we'll be the ones consuming the Nitrogen fertilised plants? The net result would be????
We just need to grow more Beans and Peas, both for us to eat and as feedstuff for the animals too. All Legumes take Nitrogen from the air and "fix" it in the soil via their roots, storing it in nodules on the root system - basic crop rotation means where you grow Legumes one year, you plough the roots into the soil and plant a Nitrogen needy crop (all leafy veg) the following year. We've known this since at least Victorian times.
Cut down on meat, never! :blink:

Nothing to do with the supermoon, get over it......

it's not been dry enough for that just yet....

Are we expecting any activity from Yellowstone yet?
-
Ok cheers guys Hasn't that happened in the past though, just not since humans have been around?? or something like that?
I believe so, i will stick with my opinion that this is just a natural phase, not human intervention.

Well your last comments crewe cold and snowlover are going against what GP thinks, he hasn't said summer like 76 but he has said I'n the medium term expect may and June to look dry. Let's hope all 3 months are dry and Sunny!!!
Fingers crossed!

Thermometer now just ticked over to 20.9c, surely it can't get much warmer !?!?!?!

I would love to, but my department has just been told that one of us is being madre redundant and really need to save all my money, but will definately think about it next year
-
Truly amazing the type of storms they can get out there. I think i'm going to have to start tracking them more, i give up with the UK lol!
-
Wow CAPE values over 3,000! I don't think i've ever seen that over the UK. I've got to go on one of these chases to experience some real storms!

Using the modis images over the last few days, you can clearly see where the ice is fracturing and spreading towards Novaya Zemlya and leaving a increasingly large area south of the Franz Josef Islands completely ice free. This process has added over 100,000km2 to the overall extent recently.
Gaining ice for a few days into April isn't all that unusual though, happens in many years such as 1988 which gained roughly 120,000km2 between the 31st March and 3rd April. If it continues for more than just another few days or we even manage to reach a new maximum, then this will be exceptional.
Anywho, looks like the ice bridge in the Nares Strait is beginning to give way. Some large chunks broke off yesterday and several more cracks have formed near the edge.
That can't be good......

Latest GFS Now showing the Risk area pushed even further South East and the Dryline firing further down into SE Kansas, before it all evolves into a Huge MCS The size of the UK
Saturday 9th April at the moment looks incredible on the GFS :wacko:
Can you post these charts, would be good to take a look at this!
-
No storm warnings out for today, at least not yet anyway
-
Definately one to watch!

A brilliant day, sunny, warm, just a shame Spurs V Wigan isn't televised otherwise it would be the perfect afternoon!
