Right, thats it dammit.

I vote we move Perth to Geraldton.

The wind is broken

Pugs is going to get a bit nerdy (don't beat me up)

Data from the last 400,000 years suggests we are about to see some cooling: www.seabreeze.com.au/gallery/gallery.asp?imageid=843 .

However, some dumb arses have put lots of gases into the atmosphere which makes this very difficult to predict: www.seabreeze.com.au/gallery/gallery.asp?imageid=842

CO2 concentration used to follow temperature change (not drive it).

In a nut shell, strange things are happening! One thing is for sure - It is cold and there is no sea breeze

Yes, I know, none of this has anything to do with anything, it is all just BS

HAAAA Leski,
What about that 4 m Tiger shark just seen in your area...!

naah...and I am usually still in bed during breakfast time
in fact the dog, down the road scares me a lot more!! he's old, got almost no teeth, limp a bit, half blind...but hey!!! still you never know!!

Cool. Did you get her number?

back to the weather?
well if you haven't heard the gulf stream is slowing down so Europe will be in an ice age soon.
The Leeuwin current is slowing down too is it? well i don't know but who knows? so expect icebergs floating by soon

Here the forecast always look **. The graph is always 5 knots short but now I know it is part of a plot not to scare everybody in NSW ...(as the big wind armagedon is coming)

>>>Is this more evidence that the interglacial period we are currently enjoying is coming to an end and we will return to a glacial period <<<

Nup, the gulf stream has slowed down because there's an increase of fresh water flowing into the artic from all the melting glaciers, that stops the gulf stream sinking when it runs out of puff and returning from whence it came. If it can't get back, it don't come forward! So N.E. Europe is going to get colder because the earth is getting hotter. Don't think the Leeuwin current is affected the same way, but who knows.

Just for some genaral info about NE Europe... Todays forcast, West coast of Sweden: -5 C on land, The more pleasent temperature of +5 C in the water . Last time I sailed was 2 weeks ago, I used a hood, gloves (normal dishwashing gloves are the best), boots and of course a drysuit as well. No worries, I was steaming! But it is VERY inconviniant, and it is F%¤!ing coold changing by the beach

Maybe my luck has changed finaly, usually when I turn up on the beach the wind dies, but now it sounds like the seabreeze is waiting for me to come back to west Oz! Take it easy guys, I will return in mid Jan together with the wind. I heard it was gonna be an extremly long seson this year, in fact it will never stop (unless you live in the Sidney area of course - where it will never begin )

Will cooling in this part of the northern hemisphere then be great enough to see a reverse of the glacial melting

- something I thaught about too, what does our friends say about this??

Alright!

...stop, start, stop, start... It will be just like sailing on the river

Has anyone thought about 1. the intensity of the sun, and 2. the distance of the earth from the sun based on the "normal" path the Earth takes when revolving around the Sun I imagine neither would be static 3. Polar wander and magnetic reversals

As long as there is food, beer and wind... I'm sorted

Pugs

Hey, the ol' Earths axis is a bit wobbly anyway, maybe we can straighten it out Are black holes windy

They said "particle accelerator"

OK OK, but would it be windy enough to use it

1. Sun's intensity wont change for a while yet i'd imagine, ozone and smog layers have a greater effect.
2. Seasonal, we arent drifting afaik.
3. Ssssssh, not many people know about magnetic reversal. Even fewer are able to predict the impact it will have on us and how long it will last. We are overdue for the reversal to occur though.
