PostSubject: going tropical   Wed 2 Aug 22:09

I was going to take the metro yesterday - but then something made me change my mind:





I've heard experts state in the TV that the present weather cannot be considered as extreme. I don't know, for my part I can't recall any such storms in Budapest as the ones we've been having regularly in the past one or two months. I've seen heavy rain yes, but not the likes of the one that fell yesterday or the week before. And certainly not one that would have been accompanied by such a ferocious wind. Thought it was going to break the tree in front of our window - it very generously settled for a couple of massive branches. I wouldn't be a car these days, parking outside and praying for my windscreens...

Alice,

Here is a photo sent to me of our crazy weather in South Africa.

Perhaps our governments have done a trade?

OK guys... a joke is a joke!

Who switched the weather around?

We have flooding in some of our major coastal cities. Major problems!

Loss of life... many!

It has snowed where never has ever snowed before...!

My late Dad always said: "A joke is joke, but when a stick is shoved up under a straight man's jacket, this is no joke..."

Hi Bill,

Looks serious. I don't know about our governments but you know what, I'll trade our tropical-rain-storms for your snow. I'm much keener on skiing than swimming Wink Mind you, no floods though.
