Will 2012 be a record disaster year?

Prophecy Sign: The roaring and tossing of the Seas - anomalous weather patterns

The year 2011 was indeed a record year for both weather disasters and natural disasters, and the year 2012 is looking every bit as ominous, (in the weather end of things at least). And the world is looking increasingly unprepared for these types of coming disasters. No wonder Jesus made the following warning that would pertain to the last days:

There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Luke 21:25 NIV

From the articles:

From floods that crippled countries, to mega cyclones, huge blizzards, killer tornadoes to famine-inducing droughts, 2011 has been another record-breaker for bad weather. While it is too early to predict what 2012 will be like, insurers and weather prediction agencies point to a clear trend: the world's weather is becoming more extreme and more costly. Following are some early forecasts for 2012 followed by details of major weather disasters for 2011:

Extreme weather came in fast and furious in 2011, with unwavering intensity for all twelve months of the year. From snowstorms to drought, hurricanes to wildfires, epic floods to heat waves -- 2011 shattered records with “a total of twelve weather and climate disasters,” according to The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), with "each causing $1 billion or more in damages -- and most regrettably, loss of human lives and property.”

"This year the world has been rocked by devastating disasters and the evidence suggests this trend is likely to continue. "The past shows that international responses could have been more effective if they had been properly planned and coordinated as part of one single system instead of a patch-quilt approach we see all too often." Mr Mitchell said: "The system is in place but too many countries and agencies are failing to back it, leaving the world dangerously unprepared for the scale and number of shocks that lie ahead.
