Vetrarríki: Bretar orðnir vantrúaðir á hnatthlýnun...

 

 

 

Enn og aftur snjóar á Bretlandseyjum og ríkir þar vetur konungur í öllu sínu veldi.  Nú orðið er varla hægt að telja þá eyjaskeggja á fingrum annarrar handar sem trúa á hnatthlýnun, og skyldi engan undra.    Spáð er hvítum jólum...

Þó þetta sé fyrir marga dauðans alvara því samgöngur hafa lamast og víðast hvar eru húsin illa einangruð, er vonandi í lagi að slá á létta strengi áður en vísað er til nýjustu frétta neðst á síðunni.

 

Whatever happened to Global Warming aye?
Armstrong & Miller show,  BBC

  

 

...og jólin nálgast og þessi mál eru víst trúarbrögð eins og margt annað .

Sægræni Kórinn syngur fallega í kirkjunni um syndaselina sem efast um hnatthlýnun...

Some parts of England are expected to be hit with between 25cm and 30cm of fresh snow, just as many up and down the country begin the big Christmas getaway...

Overnight blizzards and plummeting temperatures buckled a huge chunk of the country's road, air and rail networks on the busiest weekend for travel and shopping before Christmas.

As the mercury plunged, hundreds of drivers were forced to spend the night in their cars on the M6 after a lorry jackknifed at midnight.

The North West was hit with deluges of up to 10in of snow while parts of the south were also blanketed overnight, with blizzards expected in parts of the South East and Midlands today....

Það er auðvitað kærkomið fyrir börnin í landi engla að fá almennilegan snjó. Veðrið er í sjálfu sér ekki slæmt, en flestir óviðbúnir. Þess vegna truflast samgöngur og fólk kemst ekki til vinnu.
