The summer is finally here ...


The sun has been shining here in Bath (at last!) and the thermometer has even climbed above 20°C. However, there have also been hurricanes in Mexico, tornadoes in Oklahoma, wildfires in California and floods in the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany. There was even a mini tornado on the ground for four minutes in Milan, and North Wales experienced a mini earthquake!

We're still here, editing and publishing resources for teachers by teachers and Teachit Geography is always topical; there's a new resource below in our latest additions on the Oklahoma tornado.

Clouds
