It's not just the US, you know

You will no doubt remember that last summer, Florida was hit by four hurricanes in the same season. Whilst sympathising with Florida for the obvious problems that were caused, may I just point out one small thing:



Namely the third storm to hit Scotland and the Northern parts of England in the same week which has lead to the town of Carlisle being flooded and the town of Hexham having no water supply

When I was in Scotland, they got hit by some pretty big storms. Touring the Edinburg castle was way cool in 40+mph winds and lots of rain. I got some great night photos of the temporary parliament with the Scotish flag blowing in the high winds.

Last week, Pittsburgh was flooded after we got real heavy rains. Even the people in the caves had to seek high ground.

The snow itself was scary? Or the drag queens running for cover?

Good drag is not scary. Bad drag is very scary. Given a nice fox stole (or preferrably mink), no self-respecting drag queen would be afraid of snow. If they only had a wool coat, well then...
