Global Climate Change: solving the jigsaw

With the attention on the "Global Warming" phenomenon, most people will be attributing this as the reason for "freak weather" and recently unpredictable climate changes (as the weather is not changing seasonally as it has been in the past century.)

Like most discussions on the topic, the illustration here jumps to explaining "cause." However, actual Global warming itself is an average increase of global temperature by 1 degree Farenheit. This would mean that the effect, despite specific points in the globe having upto 12 degrees Farenheit increase, the overall temperature average remains less altered. It is therefore too judgmental to pin massive climate changes on global warming itself.

Power Cuts in Thanjavur get Predictable

Even if we have power-cuts, now they are more predictable.

So here's the prediction for those whom it starts at 09:00am - this includes Arulananda Nagar, Srinivasapuram and a few other areas.

That's 8:15 hrs of power cut through the whole day.

The morning 9:00am - 12:00am is easy to work around.
The afternoon 3:00pm - 6:00pm too is workable.

The 6:45pm - 07:30pm gives only a small 45 minute power window in-between - This brief power window is misleading and in just another few minutes, we will have the next power-cut right in 45 minutes.

Afterward, we have a scheduled power cut at 9:00pm - 9:45pm

The whole ordeal ends with a final cut from 11:15pm - 12:00am
