She saved a lot of lives, she deserves some kind of an award

I live in San Angelo, Texas and I became very upset and I'm still upset because they stopped shindig our sirens because they said it cost too much to keep it going or maintained. There are a lot of citizens that do not have a cell phone, and some will now be blind when a siren has gone off on a cell phone. Bring back the sirens, I say. I try to warn everyone I know and don't know through Facebook telling anyone who sees my Weather Warning to spread the word. But even now, the sirens and / or weather alarms on all cell phones are late coming in life 6 minutes late to react.

Food is the first casualty of weather, can you guess which comes next?

Transitioning seasons. Full moon.

I guess global climate change has nothing to do with it... Average temperatures in Florida this last week were 10 degrees above average, and highs, for one day last week, and Arizona the same this week, temperatures that melt things in the 111 range... Ok, people, any votes on our next direction, or are we comfortable with what we made?

Two days ago 105 in West Texas allready, very early for that temperature 😢😢😢

Yup, the earth is still warming and the ice sheets and glaciers are still melting. This natural process started about 20,000 years ago at the end of the Last Glacial Maximum. Humans had nothing to do with that climate change.
