Apparently, in large part because of global warming a huge-swath of Russia is on fire. Not that anybody ever mentions it. God forbid we take any action on climate change.
One can't escape the fact that we're seeing more 100- and 500-year weather events (such as 100-deg F temps in Russia), and we're seeing them with greater frequency, along with just plain freakish weather (as in a few years ago, when Calgary, Alberta, got 47 inches of rain and ice in one day... in July).
So, hold on to yer hats, folks. There's more to come....

heh/ ...."global warming" and "climate change" in the same paragraph......
Attaturk might be in some serious trouble with the central hive of the new collective religion. Hopefully this doesn't get reported. Rumor has it.... the punishment for blasphemy of this sort is 39 whacks across the backside with a copy of the communist manifesto!
Don't ya understand the decree, Atta? The new term for pious believers is "climate change".
.....just plain freakish weather (as in a few years ago, when Calgary, Alberta, got 47 inches of rain and ice in one day... in July).
An example of plain freakish, no doubt about it. But not freakish in terms of weather....oops..... not freakish in terms of climate It's Montag with yet another fine example of some shrill and freakish projection of false information.
// 4 July 1998, Calgary, Alberta: A record 43 mm (1.69 inches) of rain fall on the city in six hours, breaking the record set in 1909. //
What's a "normal season"? If the weather and the climate was always the same then we wouldn't have any need for meteorologists or climatologists.
BTW, did you happen to notice that I caught Montag in a lie by exaggeration, by a factor of 27? Montag gave falsified information that was over 27 times what actually occurred!
Rep. Markey from Massachusetts sez: "An iceberg four times the size of Manhattan has broken off Greenland, creating plenty of room for global warming deniers to start their own country,”
Oh, my, I was, indeed, incorrect. It was Edmonton, Alberta, not Calgary. To wit:
11 July 2004, Edmonton, Alberta: A severe summer storm strikes the city and environs with 200 mm of rain and damaging hail that piled metre-high in the streets. The punishing rain and golf-ball sized hail storm appears to have caused $10s of millions of dollars damage to the city's famous West Edmonton Mall. Tornadoes and funnel clouds are seen around the capitol city.
So, lessee, a meter of ice is 39.3 inches + 200mm (7.9 inches) of rain = umm, carry the one, 47 inches of ice and rain, which is how I remember the original reports.
Even if you were as smart as you think you are, you'd still be dumb as a fencepost.
Holy fuck you're stupid! Not only are you a liar but you're not even an efficient one!
First of all you couldn't get the city you wanted to name straight, and even when you do, you still manage to misrepresent the information. Can't fully tell if it's purposeful lying on your part or just plain stupidity. Probably both.
100 millimetres is about 4 inches, not 47 inches. And accumulations of water from these kinds of storms often occur in low lying areas of cities and homes, such as intersections, underpasses and basements. That's where your (false) figure of a meter comes from, not the amount of precipitation that actually occurred.
// Thunderstorms drenched Edmonton with up to 100 millimetres of rain Sunday afternoon, at about 3:00pm. The thunderstorms pounded the city with heavy rain, intense lightning and hail the size of golf balls. Several intersections were turned into lakes, forcing motorists to abandon their vehicles in metre-deep water.
wikipedia: A massive cluster of thunderstorms occurred on July 11, 2004, with large hail and over 100 mm (3.94 in) of rain reported within the space of an hour in many places. This "1-in-200 year event" flooded major intersections and underpasses and damaged both residential and commercial properties. The wettest month is July, while the driest months are February, March, October, and November. In July, the mean precipitation is 91.7 mm (3.61 in). //

Yes. You're incorrect. Twice. In two consecutive comments!
Ummm.... What was it you were saying about "a fencepost"?
