Divine retribution

"The heavy rain that spoilt May and June looks set to stay for the rest of summer, Met Office research suggests.

Cooler sea temperatures in the Pacific Ocean prompted by the La Niña weather system, sister to El Niño, have been identified as the likely cause of summer depressions sweeping across Northern Europe."


There are hailstones outside. Hailstones. And thunder. In July! And yesterday I popped down the road to buy some tropical juice and on the way back got absolutely soaked, completely and utterly, by the sudden cloud burst.

Anyway, the best part of that article is the following -

"The Church of England took a different stance to the Met Office as to cause of the floods — senior bishops said that the severe weather were a consequence of the West’s decision to ignore the Bible.

The church leaders emphasised that while the seven people who died were innocent victims, it was man-made climate change and an “arrogant” world “reaping what we have sown” that had caused the disasters of the past week."
