Today's weather problems 

I have to say that I am usually watching the weather these days, perhaps more than I should do, but, you see, the weather effects our ways of living every day of our lives. At this very moment in Brisbane Australia, it has been hot more than usual, and when it is hot and humid it is hard even to have a good night sleep. This heat wave that is lasting for so long, it is very likely due to the facts of global warming and this worries me a lot, as I can see for myself that the temperature is steadily going us every year; what will it be in a few years we may wonder. But the heat waves are only one side of the problem, because I have just found in the news that there is another problem just happening, a huge and powerful cyclone is lashing the Fiji’s and some people are running for their lives; this is the report and I quote.    
Hundreds of evacuation centres have been activated as a powerful category five cyclone lashes Fiji's outer islands, with hurricane-force winds of up to 220 kilometres per hour.
Severe Tropical Cyclone Winston is heading westward and has already hit areas in the Lau group of islands as it tracks towards more populated areas.
The cyclone was about 175 kilometres north-east of Suva, the capital, at 1:00 pm (local time), travelling at 25 kilometres per hour
The storm was carrying average winds of 230 kilometres per hour, with gusts of up to 325 kilometres per hour, Fiji's Meteorological Service said.
Virgin Australia and Jetstar have both cancelled services in and out of the country.
Fiji's Prime Minister Frank Bainimarama urged Fijians to prepare themselves for what he described as a "terrible event".
"We cannot afford to be complacent," he said.
"And I am especially concerned that some people in urban areas of the country in particular do not appear to have heeded the warnings about the seriousness of the threat we all face."
Forecasters say there is a chance the cyclone will whip up very strong wind gusts around the capital.
"That is a possibility that we cannot eliminate right now, that is the reason for us issuing a hurricane warning in terms of swells and heavy rain," Fiji meteorologist Misaeli Funaki told the ABC.
End of quote;
Having said all this, now this question arise are these two things due to global warming, and if so, can humanity do something to minimize these terrible events, or is it going to become worse, before we try harder to do something about it.
This is a view of a simple minded old man, that would like to see something positive done.
I hope you will understand my point of view.

That is all for this post, see you next time when I find something else to say.
