Our summer can peak up to +50º C and we rarely (if ever) go below 0º C.
This year I saw snow falling for the first time in my life, but it was in Pittsburgh, US and not Portugal.

It snowed so bad that week that the whole city went to a halt, no cars or people to be seen on the street while temperatures went down to -15º C.

You get it in Spain and some of the high peaks but rarely around my area.
In fact, since I was born, snow only appeared twice where I live. On the first time I had been born just a few months ago and on the second I was away from town and missed it.
When me and my friends saw it in Pittsburgh, we started playing like little kids since none of us was familiar with it.

when i was a child, i remember, there were A LOT of snow, every day my mom spent about an hour to clean up our m-m-m-m... yard? )) (we had our own house with a big free space).
but in the evening there were a lot of snow again, and it was difficult to get to the garage or just even to our neighbours))
Last 10-15 years it snows a liitle to compare to "those" years.
Hey, what about the changing of climate in your land? Is it aloud?

Yes, not easy to keep the path ways clean and safe for people to walkabout without falling.))))ye... may be we will be playing like you and friends in a few years...

Can't say that I notice big changes. Except perhaps that it seems to rain a little less than some ten years ago.Hey, what about the changing of climate in your land? Is it aloud?

Excellent , it must be the desertification and average increase of world temperature.
JFYI, and hadn't you noticed, Europe is currently under the worst raining event in the last - at least - fourty years.....

It's interesting that while a number of scientists are thinking about the possibility of the beginning of a second little ice age we have such reassuring reports.

With all due respect, what I said was:
There are indeed no big changes to be noted when looking at the facts for Portugal over the past 60 years.Can't say that I notice big changes. Except perhaps that it seems to rain a little less than some ten years ago
And it does seem to rain a bit less. We have more 0.5 days of dry weather per decade to be more exact, albeit nowhere significant as you can read on these reports from 2008:

http://www.ine.pt/re...df/rs080102.pdf
And also another study in our region showing that:

So, rain gets less frequent and also more intense, balancing the average per year. There is still rain every now and then, but it is certainly NOT THE worst rain in a thousand years at our region in concrete..

A casual observation by an individual like "it used to rain a lot more ten years ago" as well as "there are not seasons as they used to be" are even more pointless.
I see ALL of the above as completely void of any relevance.
Supporting it with a quote from two years before, where it is clearly stated that such changes are not statistically relevant (over a time span of a few tens years, to be compared with the several millions year of the earth "life cycle") is even worse.
In other words, what I tried to point out was only the futility of such a remark, and the utter lack of any signifcance of it (no matter whether it is true that "it rains a little less").
If you want some pointless data, here is some: in Italy 2005 was far more rainy than the average of the 54 years before:
Please, find a trend in this (rain in Autumn and Winter over a 200 years span) and let me know:
The real problem is if the sky will fall on our head (tomorrow ):

Yes, my Vulcan friend. I understand what you mean.
And from that perspective you are are 100% correct. Talking about the weather is a futile human activity, utterly unprovided of logic.
Perhaps I should clarify that the real purpose is not to analyze the weather conditions in the past or future in a factual manner, but rather to use it as a way of "breaking the ice" and socialize with other humans in a casual manner as described on the following webpage -> http://www.englishcl...ing/weather.htm
You're bound to come across with more events of this sort while living in this world and interacting with humans in particular.
We are illogical, but that's just part of the fun in our way..

Perfect.Perhaps I should clarify that the real purpose is not to analyze the weather conditions in the past or future in a factual manner, but rather to use it as a way of "breaking the ice" and socialize with other humans in a casual manner
I got you EXACTLY where I wanted you to be :

Dr. McCoy: I was just trying to make conversation, Spock.
Mr. Spock: It would be most interesting to impress your memory engrams on a computer, Doctor. The resulting torrential flood of illogic would be most entertaining.
We are illogical, but that's just part of the fun in our way..
Sure.
BUT :
Dr. McCoy: Spock, remind me to tell you that I'm sick and tired of your logic.
Spock: That is a most illogical attitude.

Exactly.
When the forum will become a chat room (or a tea room ) it will be nice to indulge in weather discussions.
However, don't forget Rule #12:
http://www.boot-land...?showtopic=9101
12. SMILE! Life is tough, we all know that, when you enter this board, it will be appreciated that you leave your personal problems behind, asking and replyinq questions or however exchanging informations with a "positive" attitude, TAKE IT EASY and enjoy your stay here.
While you are at it, check also point #b of the "common sense advice":
b. Please avoid to put pressure on other members, I have seen on other boards members posting a question and no later than 2 hours later make another post like "anyone?" or "PLEASE, I really need this URGENTLY!". As said, scope of the board is the exchange of informations on boot related technicalities and software, all members have their own work and come here to relax, learn something new, help others and discuss these topics, if you need something really "URGENT" consider hiring a professional consultant (and be prepared to pay him/her). If your request has not been acknowledged by anyone after a "reasonable" time, that in this case means a few days, you are on the contrary invited to "bump" it, as it may happen that a particular post has been overlooked.
