It is not true that British talk about the weather more than any other nation . In many parts of the world the weather holds just as much fascination . Parts of the fascination arises because the weather in many parts of the world is very difficult to forecast . Because Britain is an island sandwiches between a large continent and a large ocean, slight changes in direction of winds in the Atlantic or movements in areas of high or low pressure can make a major difference to our weather . Most of the time our weather is unremarkable . But in the last few years weather patterns have been causing so much trouble that it raises the question : Is the weather changing to such an extent that it amounts to a change in the climate? It is a question that is very difficult to answer . The daily and weekly variations in weather are so great that it takes years of careful measurement to detect changes in the average weather from year to year . And to detect changes in the climate involves the worldwide application of a whole number of scientific investigations . However , looking at the distant past an estimating what may happen in the future based on theoretical possibilities , It seems there are two possibilities . The world could be slipping back towards another Ice Age . But in the shorter term what man is doing may well lead to a heating up of the planet which could delay , if not prevent any forthcoming Ice Age . It is sudden and unexpected weather which makes people wonder what is happening to our climate -like the once - in - a lifetime experience of the vicious storm which swept southern England in autumn 1987 . The southern states of the USA are used to such storm , the southern part of Britain isn’t . And when literally millions of trees were uprooted and millions of pounds worth of damage was done to houses ,farms and businesses, people wondered just what was going on .
