    I always forget how far north a lot of Europe is. The fact Dublin is further north than most Canadian major cities throws me for a loop

      Yeah it’s one of those weird map oddities that’s more noticeable on a globe.

      We are mega fucked here if the gulf of Mexico ever stops sending us that warm water goodness.

        Literally the plot of “The Day after Tomorrow” although the movie is ridiculously over the top of course

          The movie takes a real mechanism, a plausible concern, then cranks the intensity of the issue to eleven and uses that exaggerated catastrophe as foundation for its setting. It’s absurd in magnitude, but not in premise.
