    Might not be an American and have more interest in non-weather things.

    As an American who spends more time outside than in, I find it odd how we think we are the center of the News and the definition of schools.

      Check out American Defaultism. It’s what you’re describing.

      But back onto the cycle…

      America cops it. Their droughts and hurricane seasons are literally fuelled by the cycle .Hell, the last bad event a Need For Speed car was named after it.

      Countries far north or south of the equatorial line obviously it’s less, as with the West Indian and Mediterranean, but even then, itheyre still impacted pretty bad in their own way.

      I dunno, I’ve lived around this planet a lot and even in Iceland it’s common knowledge.
