Italy hit by Water Bomb and Biblical hail

Glad it's not just us having a crap Summer this year , in Italy roads were turned to rivers of ice and 6 inch hailstorms battered the Marche region , no reports of injuries but the roof of a Lidl supermarket collapsed under the weight of the water and ice and cars and houses were damaged by the giant Hail stones.

Check out the size of those things !


Happy June.

It's been almost 6 years since AOC predicted we have 10 years left. So these evens are going to get far worse and much more frequent. I suggests sending whatever money you have left to your nearest green company or politician and hope it helps.

Its a bit like some of the scenes from 2012 or one of the other end of the world films.

Yeah but they ain't great when its heavy rain.
I use them in winter.

And the rubber trousers and tops you sweat your bollix off big time.

Cant win either way, ugh.

Central alaska hit a years worth of thunderstorms by the end of the first week of june.

Stuck in the mid point between el nino and la nina.

Pissing me off watching my vegetable drowning slowly.

I did a night on a lake on the Isle of Grain during the Fastnet storm. That was rough. In the morning there were bivvies and umbrellas floating in the lake. Went to check on the guy next door. Bivvy gone, stuff scattered everywhere, massive tree down smashed his rods.

Like an idiot I asked him if he'd had anything during the night.

"Are you taking the piss'? He said.

Nearly 10,000 Japanese residents in Kagoshima Prefecture have been advised to evacuate due to the risk of landslides following heavy flooding.

Yup south florida is flooding pretty good right now, which doesnt bode well for when hurricane season gets going.

Wife is always on me to take a vacation to japan, while I like the culture and the tdy soldiers I have met were awesome.

They just seem to have bad natural disasters on a pretty regular basis.

How you getting on up there mate?

You mentioned you moved there recently

Thats some intense hail storms! I've been complaining how cold our summer is this year. I think I'll keep quiet...

Agreed with so many comments on the YT site. IF they would quit manipulating the weather, maybe it be a bit more normal. How can anyone claim 'climate change' when weather is being manipulated - see GEO ENGINEERING - by human beings? I mean I guess I get it now....we humans really are responsible for climate change.....just not in the way I thought they meant.

Here's what GEO engineering is claimed to be:

Geoengineering refers to a set of emerging technologies that could manipulate the environment and partially offset some of the impacts of climate change.

Instead of offsetting, maybe they're actually enhancing climate change.

And for the record, I've always been on the side of 'climate happens' but now, I'm not so sure.

doing good, house has a huge raspberry patch, got some black currants, and a golden raspberry bushes.

We have moose and bear in the area.

Other than the mosquitoes I love it, thankfully we live on a ridge line so have steady breeze so the mosquitoes arent as bad as down in the valley.

Wow, AOC said that? It must be true then. Bartenders like her are really up on the climate change thing. They teach them that in bartending school don’t ya know. Doom, and only 4 more years to go. Weather has been outstanding around here lately, with more of the same predicted.

Moscow is also under water.

Maybe one of their Tsunami nukes went off accidentally

I don't mind snow, and I love rain, but hail can be some bad chit! We had storm with some 6" hail in it...only once (thank God!)...and I mean to tell ya', that was some scary stuff, boy howdy! I was out feeding the cows when it hit. It was just tiny hail at first, and I saw my wife screaming and frantically waving her arms at me down by the house. Then I heard what sounded like a bowling ball hit the dirt about 50' feet from me, and then another one about 200 feet behind me. Holy CRAP! I jumped in the tractor and headed for the barn. One hit the barn and it sounded like a bomb went off. Really scared me. I drove down to the house and one hit the garage as I was getting out of the truck, and another hit above the kitchen as soon as I got inside. Fortunately most of it was golf ball sized, but every now and then there would be a huge one.
