Alastair McDonald writes: The world has suffered from severe regional weather extremes in recent years, such as the heat wave in the United States in 2011 or the one in Russia 2010 coinciding with the unprecedented Pakistan flood. snip From a British perspective, there's an interesting article in this month's "Weather" about the North Sea storm surge in the winter of 1953 which led to extensive flooding in coastal areas and considerable loss of life. The article goes off on an interesting tangent in the introduction, suggesting that there were just as many if not more severe weather events in Britain between 1947 and 1953 as there were between 2006 and 2012 (though perhaps rather fewer extreme months). Of course Britain is not the world, and if you looked at the global picture it might be very different. -- John Hall "Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong." Oscar Wilde |
