Scientists warned us about Global Warming, but we never payed much attention to it. We all thought it was too far for us to worry about right now. Nevertheless, things have started changing faster than we thought they would. Though we haven’t burnt or frozen to death, the current weather patterns seen all around the world are of great worry. No one would ever though such things would happen, but they are and will continue… Below are one of the most unbelievable patterns experiences do far, all product of the oh-so-famous Greenhouse Effect.
February 2014, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
The least likely place for snow to fall, suffered from 2 ft of snow in one snowfall. The Brazilian state, though it experiences the lowest temperatures in Brazil (usually 39 F), was not expecting this heavy snowfall at all. Actually, Brazilians weren’t expecting snow at all! Though Brazilians enjoyed their very first taste of snow, they were simultaneously extremely worried, since they know it isn’t something natural to happen.

January 2014, Cairo, Egypt.
The situation in Brazil seems normal compared to what happened in Egypt. Egypt. The country that reaches temperatures as high as 132 F, actually experienced their first snowfall in 100 years. The image of the three pyramids covered in snow amazed the world, and still wanders through the minds of scientists who, after years of studying weather patterns, never expected such thing.

March 2014, Brazzaville, Congo.
The Northern Lights, commonly known as Aurora, is a beautiful phenomenon which occurs only occurs at night… Right? Nope! It occurred for the first time in daylight in the Southern Hemisphere, in the capital of Congo. At 2pm, the sky quickly turned black, as if a storm was approaching, and suddenly the show of lights started. Brazzaville’s habitants first thought it was storm followed by a firework show, but then realized that it was nothing like it. They were mesmerized by the sight, and the entire world was completely shocked about the news. How could it occur at 2pm? And in only the country of Congo? We will never know.

March 2014, Tampa, FL.
Right before a heavy thunderstorm, which flooded the entire city of Tampa, citizens noticed a peculiar cloud formation. Clouds covered the entire sky, except for a circular area. Thinking it was simply a weird formation, Tampa citizens continued with their lives. Nevertheless, 10 minutes after this formation was noticed, the strongest storm yet recorded attacked Tampa, flooding houses, malls, and reaching even 3rd floor of certain buildings. This flood also affected cities near Tampa, and its citizens are still recovering.

These are only four of the unbelievable weather patterns that our world has experienced so far in only 3 months. Scientists are still further investigating the causes for such things, but questions still remain unanswered. The only reason we have so far is that of Global Warming, and the only reason is that.. our world might be ending.
