Could this be caused by earth's axis change and I always thought gas emission is supposed to make the earth warmer as they claim.  ac_umm


Just cycles that last longer than modern sensors in the sea and formally placed ones near areas that have now become built up heat sinks.



My great great and great grandfathers kept meticulous records as farmers going back to the later part of the 1800's. Weather has always been nuts, and our families originally fled extreme weather in the early 1800's. Starvation level weather...


Damn that sucks, though I'm kind of confused but wasn't your family from the US or you guys travel between Oz and the States often?


Both sides of the family trace back all over Europe... probably beyond.



One side left an Irish island in the mid 1800's (product of bizarre genealogy) and the other side I wouldn't necessarily say left anywhere but just spread out over 1000 years or more everywhere from Europe into the New World, as did the Irish contingent.



The genetic markers were expansive and unexpected...



Then I married a free settler offspring from Australia.



She's mostly Irish and English in genealogy but no location that my genes have been near for 300-400 years.... at least.



My lil sister went to university to study history and got hooked into genealogy before she changed her major. She was able to parse back a few hundred years or more through digital records and in house visits at courthouses and the like, along with extensive DNA tests, to piece together everything we've always been told and what we weren't told.



My biological grandfather was a POW in the Philippines in WW2.... at the same time, the grandfather I knew that was ready to deploy as a Bomber pilot was stopped because the war was ended.



My great grandfather rode calvary in WW1, but he never mentioned it.



I had relatives who rode wagons for supplies in New York State for the resistance during the revolutionary war. I had rellies who died at Gettysburg. I had relatives that were part of the French Canadian fur trade and their offspring got denied access to the US and had to sneak in as illegals. I've got Jewish blood too... a 50+ year old farmer in Bavaria that married a teenage widower.



I've got the charts, thanks to my sister, that we were descended by a third born (therefore utterly worthless) daughter in the British crown who had to flee.



...and a notable historical scientist I won't mention.
Blahhhhhh...

These Canucks don't see to give a toss about our hypothermia.



 :indiferent:

I remember you posting about temperatures above forty.


Well it's barely above TWENTY!!!

You don't get the humidity like we do in Southern Ontario.

Holy smokes!  That is quite a lot of accomplishments by your ancestors, and a insanely long lineage with history.  It looks like most of your grand ancestors were soldiers that fought in quite a number of wars.  While my family barely know what is before my great great grandparents, most of us were just rural folks to commoners, the most I know is my great grandpa from my dad's side once built a school with the money he earned during his life as a government official while his son(my grandpa) was wealthy enough be addicted and live off of opium, and that's all there is too it, lol.

I don't mind heat and humidity if I don't have to work in it. Panama is really hot and humid.

Never mind heat and humidity.



We're freezing here!!!

Poor baby. You might not be able to go in the pool on X-mas Day.

The pool heater is definitely going on.

Listen, my little Yum Cha...it's summer.



There was no spring, when temperatures could get into the mid 30's most years. But now we're in summer.



And I've only been in the pool ONCE since April.



I don't think you're seeing the gravity of the situation.

Think positive. The temps might drop 25 degrees and then you can skate on your pool on X-mas Day.

Why do I bother? Canadians don't care about anyone else but themselves.



If you don't hear from either Freud or myself, you'll know that we've frozen to death.



In SUMMER. Then you'll wish you were more compassionate.
