Drought in EU, USA, and China
Severe drought conditions are happening in the EU, USA, and China:

One-fifth of apple harvest is ruinedChina drought ignites global grain supply concerns
Drought parches China’s ‘land of fish and rice’Direct economic losses from drought seen near $2.3 billionMillions face food poverty as northern Europe is hit by worst drought in 35 years
With Northern Europe facing its worst drought since 1976, politicians in the West are expecting protests from farmers, consumer discontent and a strain on budgets…Meteorologists say that Northern Europe has had 50 per cent less rain than normal over the past two months, while temperatures have been 4C higher than usual. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/world/millions-face-food-poverty-as-northern-europe-is-hit-by-worst-drought-in-35-years/story-e6frg6so-1226065483805
As far as Europe is concerned, for a couple of years I have been writing that it will have civil unrest and probably riots as these may be factors in the rise of the final King of the North beast power. Financial problems, food shortages/inflation, and religion (like issues with those who profess Islam) are likely factors in that. Drought causes food shortages and often contributes to food inflation.
Texas has had major perhaps the worst drought conditions in the USA (see Drought Affecting USA Wheat and Beef Supplies and Droughts Affecting Russia and Parts of USA).
LCG has long had a booklet of possibly related interest titled “Who Controls the Weather? ” that is available for those interested in more on the weather and Bible prophecy.
While Jesus foretold on a time of natural disasters as part of “the beginning of sorrows”, the Book of Revelation (16:8-11) tells of a time of even greater disturbances during “the Day of the Lord”. These will go beyond what normally have occurred in the past century. World events are aligning towards the fulfillment of biblical prophecies. As I have been writing for a while, I suspect that in October 2011 we will likely see food shortages and/or significant food inflation.
Now there is good news as ultimately, God’s kingdom will come and those issues will be gone (Revelation 7:16). But a terrible hour of trial is coming first (Revelation 3:10).
