"
Illinois,
Indiana, and
Ohio were each record wet during June with monthly precipitation totals more than twice the 20th century average."

More rain than normal, and record cold temperatures.....but the Ice Pack is melting, and the rain forest is degenerating.
About the summer of 2001, I was helping a guy pinned under a tree. A large tree, in the woods....some distance from his house. As big as the tree was, and the way the tree alledgedly fell on him, and his time entrapped.....he was lucky he did not have any compartmentalization syndrome. I am a pre-hospital care provider.
June of 2001 was rainy. Very rainy. Carrying the patient from the location of the incident.....on a backboard, assisted by about 6 other people, I was wearing good clothes, and my brand new Asics Tennis shoes....that had only been wore probably two times before. My clothes become muddy and my tennis shoes were trashed. I ended up throwing them away if I am correct.
All I hear is "El-Nino" is going to destroy the world. Crops will become dryed out from no rain....or excessive rain will destroy them. The Antartic will melt and flood the world. On my I-phone, all the news I read is that the FBI is arresting Child Mollesters, Plane crashes in Nevada, Racial violence and murders of black people, Women poisoning their husbands, Cops shooting black people and teh racial violence that follows afterward. And another one ----> the world is going to end on July the 15th.
At work, all I hear is bad news......and more bad news. And anything that damages or destroys morale and working relationships with my co-workers.....whom are not in my department. All I hear is lies and misleading information - such as protocol and drug and narcotic changes ( I am in EMS / Fire - Rescue / Haz-Mat ). Plans and policy changes that make no sense to me, or have a legitmate purpose in my opinion - or policy, procedure and rules have been changed to create a hassle or discomfort in my department.....or to make me adn my department members angry or agitated ; and/or to elicit a response.
Weather - Work - News on my I-phone and televison, is most always....about 95% of the time.....disheartening.
