More scare mongering from the AGW fraternity.

Wow, 20 dead!!!

Here's a REAL heatwave in the US...

"The 1936 North American heat wave was the most severe heat wave in the modern history of North America. It took place in the middle of the Great Depression of the 1930s, and caused catastrophic human suffering and an enormous economic toll. The death toll exceeded 5,000, and huge numbers of crops were destroyed by the heat and lack of moisture. Many state and city record high temperatures set during the 1936 heat wave still stand to this day. The heat wave followed one of the coldest winters on record."

Similar rain period were recorded in Sydney in 1951

The historic builds at Port Arthur are bearly above sea level and are usualy protected by man-made sea wall.
The storm surge damaged the old sea wall and the water rushed in. Pretty simple!

"Staff cordoned off the Historic Site's central grassed area as the pounding waves smashed part of the sea-wall fronting Mason Cove and the rising sea level surged into the main penitentiary building."

Its just the weather mate, a tax won't change it!

Now stop scaring yourself and go out and enjoy the sunshine. (when the rain stops)
