[quote:Truth02:MV8zNzM3MzMyXzc0MTMwMjU2XzZFQ0MxNUE=] http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=ST-20190715-68747-IND Extreme Weather in India on July 15 2019 03:16 AM (UTC). Life in the desert districts of Jaisalmer and Barmer has come to a standstill due to the dust storm that has continued here for the last seven days. At a few places railway tracks have been covered by sand, however, they are being continuously cleared. At other places, dozens of villages have lost connection with the main roads as sand dunes have covered the roads making it impossible for vehicles to move. Even cattle-rearers of these villages are facing problems as fodder has not reached the villages for the livestock. Due to dust storm in these two districts, the farmers are a worried lot as whatever sowing they had done has been lost to these storms. At the Indo-Pak border, BSF is also facing a lot of problems. The electric wires have broken near the border outposts and electricity is being supplied through the generator. The BSF vehicles are facing problems in reaching the BOPs. To add to the farmer's woes the threat of drought also looms as not a drop of rain has been received here for 10 days now. Farmers had sown seeds 10 days ago but there has been no rain and fields are covered by sand while and maximum temperature is still hovering around 40 degree Celsius.... ... ... [/quote]

In 2017 we saw the most costly damage from weather the United States has ever seen. In the first weeks of 2018 we have seen blizzards and snow from Florida to Maine, 40 degree temperature swings and deadly flooding in California. The crazy, unpredictable weather is being felt and observed by Glp'ers from all over the world.
The goal of this thread is simply to observe, compare and contrast forecasts - to what really ends up happening. Meteorologists are wrong - ALOT. It would seem the weather has been getting harder to predict, and the storms are becoming intense. Here maybe we can piece together the puzzling weather of late. I've been wanting to create this thread for a while, because it baffles me how inaccurate forecasts have been in the past, and even more so as of recently! Here we can have a template of what was predicted, what really happened and maybe it'll help shed light on what we can expect in the future!
Feel free to post anything weather related. From links, to videos to your daily weather forecast and/or observations. The more data the better. I will give daily forecasts for a few cities including my current location. This should be interesting and fun. I'll try my hardest to update here on the regular. But i sure could use some help from you fine GLP weathertards.
