I often hear or read about “natural disaster”- the eruption of Mount St Helen, a volcano

the state of Washington: Hurricane Andrew in Florida; the floods in the American

Midwest; terrible earthquakes all over the world; huge fires; and so on. But I’ll never

forget my first personal experience with the strangeness of nature – “the London Killer

Fog” of 1952. It began on Thursday, December 4

when a high –pressure system (warm

air) cover southern England. With the freezing-cold air below, heavy fog formed.

Pollution from factories, cars, and coal stoves mixed with the fog. The humidity was

terribly high, there was no breeze at all. Traffic (cars, trains, and boats) stopped. People

couldn’t see, and some walked onto the railroad tracks or into the river. It was hard to

breathe, and many people got sick. Finally on Tuesday, December 9

, the wind came

and the fog went away. But after that, even more people got sick, many of them died.
