Talk About The Weather

Everywhere I go I hear people talking about the weather. In the Doctors office everyone was complaining not about their problems but the weather. We better get used to this as climate change and extreme weather is going to be the norm for the next few years. Australia is burning like never before, California is in a state of drought which has no match and looks to devastate the 20 billion agriculture industry. Fires are burning out of control and the fire season is months away.

Canada has this winter experienced unprecedented cold waves and in the fall rain flooded the west causing tremendous damage to huge areas. All over the world we are seeing the same pattern of violent weather events. One thing is for sure is we must begin planning for these natural disasters with earnest and be prepared for here to for water issues which cause the greatest loss of life and property damage.

When the Weather Channel began it's broadcasting little did we know that it would have a vast audience and perform such a vital task in keeping people informed and safe. This has produced a huge industry and here in Oakville the actual headquarters for this station we have seen an expansion of large proportions already and I am sure that there will be more to come. So keep talking about the weather and stay safe during our future natural disasters.
