Question

please enter quickly, need to know about in the next 10 years, please dont go on about the gulf stream!

Answer 1

Overall summers will get hotter and drier and winters will be warm, windy and wet . There will be less water overall but greater risks of flooding in the winter especially by the Medway. Places like Yalding where two rivers merge, or on low ground like Ashford will be more at risk of flooding in the winter. In spring and summer gardens flowers will have to be chosen more selectively as the usual species will wilt and die due to lack of water since there will be a permanent hosepipe ban. The ground will become increasingly drier and more difficult to cultivate.The underground water being less replenished will cause the water coming out of the taps to have a greater chalk content. People will start suffering from heat strokes and will have to cover up in the sunshine. Classrooms will become horribly hot in June and July, and examination time will be an even worse nightmare than it is!

Answer 2

Greater risk of flooding in low lying areas like romney marsh. No great problem if Ashford floods, its a dump anyway. The river medway will probably flood more in the winters

Answer 3

in 10 years not that much,just the hosepipe ban probably.
