Are we seeing the Drought mentioned in the Book of Joel that heralds the Day of the Lord?

Russian drought (2/10/11) http://blogs.wsj.com/source/tag/russian-drought/
Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.
Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yea, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.
How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.
O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field.
The beasts of the field cry also unto thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness. (Joel 1:15-20)
Ping friends!
What drought? We have record rainfall.
Some places will be flooded.. others will not see any moisture for hundreds and hundreds of days.
ping!
Droughts, Famines and Plagues..
Record Rainfall is not causing food sources to flourish...
Fer cryin out loud.
I wish the doom n gloomers would just stop spreading their fud every time we don’t get everything our way.
It’s raining very nicely every few days on my garden. My problem is a cat digging up the seeds while burying her euphemisms.
GOD did not grant the gifts of the spirit and prophecy to his creation, so we could fluff it off as *Doom* but hope for the return of Christ...
His promise over 2000 years ago....
Something weird was going on recently. The other night, there were some strange ‘booming’ sounds in the sky, followed by bright flashes of light. We then had some sort of chemical substance come down on us. Very strange. What is even weirder is the news cover-up. Not a single front page story on the event.
What drought would that be? Just because one or two states are experiencing a drought doesn’t make it world, or even nation, wide. Many states this year, including mine, have had record rainfall and snowfall and we are due for some more over the next 3 days.
That’s nice, but many people will be starving and farmers will have there crops wiped out as the floods keep moving on America’s farmlands....
In addition to many other countries on the planet....
Oh my goodness! You, too?
Starvation is caused by bad government, not bad weather, and the Mississippi has been flooding every few years as long as it has existed.
Droughts come and go all the time, with no connection to “end times”. Really getting tired of this kind of lunacy. Oh no, a locust: END TIMES!!! Oh No, an earthquake: END TIMES!!! Oh no, someone passed gas: END TIMES!!!
Yes, and I’ve heard from friends all around the country they experienced the same phenomenon.
The drought in texas will end sooner or later, meanwhile many of us would enjoy a little dry weather for a change.

Harmless to humans but can kill baby trees and plants
Their haunting chirrup strikes fear into the heart of every gardener.
For thirteen years this cicada hoard has lain dormant in its underground lair, awaiting the right time to strike. And it appears that that time has come.
Even at this very moment, billions of the winged insect are crawling from their exoskeleton cages, ready to suck the sap out of every plant, tree and bush that gets in their way.........................................................
