Very interesting, Zapata. I wonder what is causing such a shift in that pattern. It reminds me of an odd occurence a few months ago when the Northern Hemisphere jet stream was observed to fluctuate higher than normal, causing a brief conveyor belt of storms to reach the British Isles and also a period of extreme cold in the USA. There are some very odd things going on...

Ok back!

Hi Zapata and Sir Tim!

When El niño happens extreme climate change pattern oscillations fluctuate weather across the Pacific Ocean which results in fluctuating droughts, floods, and crop yields in varying regions of the world.

Extreme weather conditions related to the El Niño cycle correlate with changes in the incidence of epidemic diseases. For example, the El Niño cycle is associated with increased risks of some of the diseases transmitted by mosquitoes, such as malaria, dengue, and Rift Valley fever[citation needed]. Cycles of malaria in India, Venezuela, Brazil, and Colombia have now been linked to El Niño.

Scientists at The Earth Institute of Columbia University, having analyzed data from 1950 to 2004, suggest El niño may have had a role in 21% of all civil conflicts since 1950, with the risk of annual civil conflict doubling from 3% to 6% in countries affected by El Niño years.

Alaska woman called heroic after surviving bear attack while jogging
JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska – A woman attacked by a brown bear on an Anchorage military base struggled to walk 2 miles on a windy, uphill path to get help, officials said Monday.

The woman's efforts to get aid after a 7- to 8-foot bear swiped at her were nothing short of heroic, Mark Sledge, base conservation law enforcement officer, said at a news conference.

Ohhhhhh mannnnnnnnnnnnnnn! That is so sad! The perils of living in the wild! Comes with the territory, and that's the way it is!

JUST IN: Army declares martial law in Thailand.

Yep and the jogging path goes through the woods right along a Salmon filled stream...go figure there would be bears there and now it will be killed for her stupidity

Today has been very eventful wow, do you know why they've done that AKO?

I saw that too, but don't know why it was declared. Didn't do any digging.

Omg, I don't even know what I would do if a bear came at me!!

And you're right! No jogging there!!
