Storm Frank: Freak weather to hit UK and could make North Pole 50F hotter than normal

"The powerful weather system that is set to bring “storm Frank” to the UK could lead temperatures in the north pole to be pushed over 50F hotter than normal.

The storm is set to bring yet more destruction to the UK after a week that has seen much of the north battered by terrible flooding. But that will come with a weather system that will cause huge disruption across the Arctic.


With those strange northern weather events will come an Icelandic storm that might be among the most vigorous ever, according to the Washington Post.


That storm will begin as the weather quickly becomes more intense as it travels from the western Atlantic, where it brought destruction to the area around Dallas in the US. As it moves the storm’s pressure will drop enough to make it a “bomb cyclone”, causing huge amount of disruption."

I appreciate your smile of agreement, imagine them in 1962, running around in circles, calling each day a new storm name to add impact to their minuscule weather related problem. This is the 21st century, we're no pushovers, we don't become a laughing stock for other countries where this weather would be considered reasonably mild, no sir, we're warriors, and storm Frank, by god it's the storm of the century.......

....I'm gonna go and empty every supermarket shelf tomorrow, even for food I don't like....my store will be prepared for the biblical times ahead.

Try telling the left wing that. They seem to struggle to understand it.
