Gun metal grey clouds
Declare war from the Heavens
Uncertainty  reigns

(C) Copy written, 12 January, 2005, by Karla Dorman. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2005 is roaring off to a wild start.  Weather systems parade in never-ending succession across the landscape, from sea to shining sea.

Record rains in California.
Record snows in the Sierras.
Flooding rains in Southern Utah
and the Ohio Valley.
Ice storms in the Upper Plains
and threats of tornadoes
in the Southern Plains.

Daddy lives in North Central Ohio.  This is what his weather has been like:

Christmas Eve, 2004:  28 inches of snow.
New Year's Day, 2005:  Heavy rains have melted all the snow.
January 5, 2005:  Ice storm with two inches of ice.
Record cold is in the forecast by this weekend.

He said he's never seen anything like it.

Every year, weather records are set and broken for the
most
hottest
coldest
wettest
driest
stormiest.

Storms of the Century are striking with frightening regularity.

Every year, the number and intensity of storms seems to increase.

What is going on with our wicked, wicked weather?

Muncie, Indiana: Icestorm last Wed. that knocked out the power for 60,000 people. As of today, its still not all back on, and we had to have electrical crews from several states to add manpower it was so bad, not to mention all the downed trees, cable, and phonelines. Great question, Karla, and a great write.

She[nature] is certainly a very angry mother at the moment. If it's any comfort were experiencing whacky and leathal weather in the UK too. Excellent write.

Mother nature is just doing some house keeping. It's just that now we know what the weather is like all over the world instead of just in our neck of the woods and this can be overwelming sometimes. The media is just blowing it out of portion. I remember ice storms in Ontario and Quebec that cost the life of many wild animals. At the time this happened there was an overpopulation of deer and the deer where starving. This seemly horrible icestorm killed many of the weaker deer. After the storm there were no more deer straving. There is a method to Nature's madness. It is just hard to see the whole picture when it affects us the way that it does.

Excellent write Karla...what is going on is the earth must
align itself to planetary changes, and it makes all of the
weather patterns more intense...we are likely to have this
kind of activity for an indefinite period until the alignment
is settled, then it's up for grabs;-) hahaha

The end times are a coming; and the signs are becoming more apparant every day. We must take heed and pay attention....Powerful write about a wild and wacky weather year; I wonder what the future holds...God only knows! May He protect us from harm and danger....I pary for His protection and his angels around us and around our land...

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :(
