| I can't shake the feeling that the tornadoes are not ordinary |
|
and have a meaning or energy to them that we should pay attention to.
There were just SOOO many and they were so violent. Well most tornadoes are violent, but unrelenting is the word I think I'm looking for.
Or maybe I just had a rough night of keeping one eye on the doppler weather channel while I tried to get some sleep, which was near impossible. ARGHH!

| 4. This is climate change |
|
The ice caps are melting faster than predicted. It's causing a slowing of ocean currents and the weather is affected. Until we address this globally, it will at best stay this way every year if not get worse. Gore's film 'Inconvenient Truth' and other sources all predicted this.
One hope is that the politicians who are so damn agressively against the science of climate change - if their constituents and their areas are so badly effected, maybe it'll knock some damn sense into them and get them on board so we can think of some solutions.

Most likely that has a lot to do with it......maybe solar activity, too.

| 5. Let's not forget our planet has been under attack of late. |
|
I can't help but believe that the radiation leaked into our environment in Japan hasn't had a negative effect on our atmosphere.
Then, there's the oil slick in a large part of the Gulf. The oil won't let water evaporate, which is surely changing the dynamics of the gulf stream. And lord knows what those dispersant chemicals they sprayed on the Gulf might have done.
Global warming, too. Gotta get off these fossil fuels. Look what they are doing. But most people don't want to change their ways, or be inconvenience in any way. :(

| 8. North Carolina gets about 15 tornadoes a year. Seems like we've had |
|

half our allotment in the last few days! Also, the tornadoes were noticeable more damaging that usual, there were more in a cluster, or line, and they lasted longer. I spent some of my childhood in Missouri and tornadoes were so frequent we had tornado drills as well as fire drills. I got used to "reading" the sky and knowing when a bad storm was coming. The skies here in NC never look like what I think of as "tornado skies."
