January the 8th and already a tornado watch/warning situation in the
US. The time of the phase is 11:37. Another unstable spell.
sNiP

Tornados are relatively common pretty much all year around in the southern
half of the US. However, there was an F-3 tornado in Wisconsin recently and
that has only happned once in the last 100 years, that is, a tornado. I'd
be willing to bet the last one that occured was nowhere near that strength.
F-3's are rare enough during the spring and summer months in the northern
states but during the winter, it's almost frightening.

As for now, most the the northern, central and east central US is poised for
the coldest air of the season, temps will reach -35F in many places and
below zero as far south as Kentucky. This was considered quite normal
during my youth but since the recent global changes in climate have occured
over the last 10-15 years, this weather could be considered quite cold. It
wasn't unusual at all in the 1970's and 80's (in Minnesota-where I grew up)
to have winters with over 100 inches of snow and extended periods of weather
that reamined below zero, even during the day. There has not been a severe
winter in Minnesota since the mid 1990's. As for northern Kentucky (where I
am unfortunately living now) we haven't had a significant snowfall in over
three years.

As for your other antics, this user does not care to comment as they are not
relavant to anything happening here but you DID bring up the weather here in
the states, so I thought I'd comment myself.

Good Day and Please, Don't Neglect Your Practice Counsellor,
