Cool things ON THE INTERNET

[Cassie]

This is a wind map of the earth. You can turn the earth by dragging your cursor over the world in the direction you want it to go. IT'S NEAT, OKAY? http://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/orthographic=-85.14,4.45,283 (that link is going to make it start from a view of my side of the planet)

YOU CAN ADD OTHER COOL THINGS, IF YOU WANT.

 

[Dr Dave]

Neato.

 

[Mirah]

Cassie you are causing the winds to change! Don't do it! Don't do it!

That is pretty cool.

I turned the Earth upside down because IRONY.

I'd hate to be on a boat in the middle of that swirly wind-butthole off the coast.

Worldometers. I like to say it like WORLD O' METERS!, but they probably mean it like worldOMitrs. Anyway, here's your real time world statistics -

Have you seen Cornwall? It looks like this on the ground

Check out the red swirly bits on the earth thing!

 

['Gear]

Holy shit. Someone better go for some buckets.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Isn't it about time 30% of Britain ends up under water anyway? I remember it being predicted on Tomorrow's World or something. "By 2014, the UK will look like that!"

 

[Cassie]

Is that almost a hurricane?

You know its a bad day when the sea is on your roof.

Also Neptune appears to have put in an appearance in person.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Neptune looks a lot like THE ROCK.

Looking at that cool internet map, it seems that other than something going on off of Antarctica, the UK is about the windiest place in the world right now.

 

[Cassie]

Is that a normal thing for this time of year? The swirly spot is just hanging there in the same place.

 

[CaptainWacky]

God is punishing us for the gay marriages obviously.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Or punishing us for UKIP.

 

['Gear]

I believe god is punishing mankind for not allowing enough gay marriages.

 

[Cassie]

The swirly thing has finally moved east a bit and the eye is over land now. I'd hate to be on the beach where the wind is strongest.

I sometimes stare at the trade winds and imagine PIRATES.

OH if you click on "earth" in the lower left corner you can switch to ocean currents.
