According to meteorologists, a La Nina pattern is now well-established and should bring higher than usual rainfall to southern Queensland over the next 3 months. Global warming has meant warmer than average temperatures which means that less water is making it into the waterways when it does rain. The recent rain is fabulous for our water supply, not so great for our driveway/hillside access and who knows what it will mean for the house moving?Blithehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07920133262015868474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181149887921253584.post-51473853066468724772007-12-14T15:40:00.000+10:002007-12-14T15:40:00.000+10:00So evocative!

Our own climate is grey and cold, not refreshingly frost-bitten and snowy like the Midwestern states (recovering from a terrible, but beautiful ice storm), not so cold as to require down jackets and heavy boots, nor yet warm enough to shed the premier fleece and quilted vests. And damp -- not the living, breathing, growing damp you describe, just clammy, mold-inducing damp. I'd like to try one of your summers.<BR/><BR/>Are there claims that the rains are global-warming-caused, or is this just normal variation?Vivihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10475433990354514332noreply@blogger.com
