and 70mph winds / summary
There is a flood alert on
England and Wales due to a forecast for a once-in-a-50-years’storm that is
heading for Britain. Starting of this evening of the 14th of June
and after a longer period of dry weather heavy rains are expected which will
cause heavy flooding. So the Environment Agency is warning everyone in the area
of South-West, Wales and Midlands. All necessary precautions must be and are
already taken. There have already been exceptional downpours in other areas and
the heaviest showers are expected on Thursday night and Friday during daytime.
Saturday it will be better with less rain and more sunshine.
Reaction:
Can you imagine, it is June
and such a heavy weather forecast is predicted upon your country. I certainly
do believe weather is changing, but what causes it? Are we, the people, responsible for climate
changes?
Such short period and heavy
rains are more for warm tropical countries I would say.
On the other hand the
forecast is told in a manner in which I almost would say it comes from a
sensational newspaper. However they called it an unseasonable Atlantic storm so
it is obvious it is not normal in this time of year.
