'Exceptional': Intense Rainfall Has Transformed The Sahara Desert
In Morocco's southeastern desert, a rare downpour has brought lakes and ponds back to life, with locals – and tourists – hailing it as a gift from the heavens.

Amazingly it’s dry all week here in the midlands, grey, dirty sky, but only 5% chance of rain until after the weekend.

Shocking images almost looks like a film set
of course a warmer planet = more moisture in the air.
It's surprising how many people only see global warming as causing droughts.
What happens when we are all driving hydrogen powered vehicles?

Hydrogen just leaks out of everything....

It’s not very energy dense, so you need a lot of it, in high pressure round cylinder shaped tanks to do any distance. Then you need some precious metals to convert it to electric in a fuel cell, then a battery to provide a buffer and then to an electric motor. You could burn it in an engine but that’s very inefficient.
In the meantime you have to firstly produce the hydrogen, using a lot of energy, then pressurise it, store it and transport it, then store it again - all the time it’s doing its best to leak out.
The upshot being, if you charged a battery with the same amount of energy used to produce the hydrogen you would go about 3 times a far.
