THE LONDON EYE - Weather

London's eye is trying desperately to avoid frostbite. Temperatures have been chilly. More than that, they have been below freezing. Temperatures are breaking all form of current records, negatively. 

This has brought with it, the depression of Gardeners, the frustration of fashionistas who have invested in springtime trends and started to cycle their closet towards less bulk and more flimsy

It has brought with it the naysayers the 'I told you so's' in the climate debate. 

However, the London eye is developing an itch. Is it climate change or is is a meteorological state. Much has been made of the 'chink' in the Gulf Stream, the misalignment that is so severely hampering what have been normal temperatures. weather patterns and,  dare I say it, warmth. Indeed, it is not for one minute believed that it is the placing of a certain rose tint over London's eye that makes its recollections of short sleeved Sundays in march, or sunglasses and heat in Easter. In fact, grass pollen has definitely irritated this eye in the first cut as early as late February in previous years when the pleasant view of crocus bud and the yellow glow of daffodils are gazed upon. 

No, there has been a change alright. This  is climate change - but how permanent or cyclical  is it?

This eye has read many a more learned article on the issue. In fact, so much has been viewed, that the eye almost waters when this issue is dragged out in the media and amongst the dinner tables of soho and the caffes of  Camden.
