Before you can have a flash flood, you’ll need to have a lot of rain, but would it surprise you to know that the latter does not predict more of the former? I was surprised, so it might shock, astound, and astonish the Chicken Little climate grifters exploiting the recent tragedy in Flash Flood Alley … Read more
Vermont Public, the local Nancy Pelosi Radio (NPR) online affiliate (maybe gang is a better term), has a bit about the rain in the state capital of Montpelier. “Montpelier sets rainfall record for July.”
The Climate Cult is in a constant state of panic over the weather and works diligently to lower your opinion to their level of ‘concern.’ The result is Chicken’s Little (like Attorney’s General) scampering about with every forecast. All for naught, but ever persistent.
According to NOAA, the one-hundred-year average precipitation for “New Hampshire” is 44.3 inches. Also, according to NOAA, as of today, New Hampshire has received over 38 inches of precipitation in 2021. That’s 87% of our annual “rainfall,” and it’s barely mid-July.
It is always subject to change, but as of mid-week, this is the total precipitation forecast for Hermine through Monday night. The tight gradient means that a track farther out to sea would mean less rain, and a track closer to the coast would mean much more rain. A shift east and we get less, west and … Read more
Hamlet’s famous soliloquy ponders mortality through the filter of our insufferable experience, littered with brief moments of joy versus the mystery of what awaits us in death. Or, something like that. The inner voice explores existential crisis. In keeping with my impromptu (as in unplanned) climate content Friday, while reporting this morning on the demise … Read more
It’s almost Summer. That means another apocalyptic season of Biblical proportions. Or is it another season of biblical apocalypses? Boiling seas, all manner of tempests, raining fire, swarms of frogs, hell like infernos, and (of course) rising seas that swallow the sinners, Noah-like but with some dry land left to which true believers may cling. … Read more
The truth is, we ARE being poisoned…in several different ways. We can all see the man-made clouds line up in the sky, even at night now. Airplanes are leaving an increased number of cloud formations. They linger and eventually turn the blue sky, a milky white or gray color. WHY? There are many reasons our … Read more
While it’s true a majority of Vermonters love the hypothetical (and fantastical) notion of our little state saving the planet from climate change by going “net zero” or some such thing, it’s also true that an even larger majority has absolutely net zero interest in paying for (or living with) the programs designed to do … Read more
You’ll get different answers depending on who you ask. I’m referring to the two-season jokes: winter and Construction, winter and bugs, Pumpkin Spice and everything else. I’m sure I’ve missed a few, but drought season is one of my favorite topics. I don’t like droughts, but my town has been acting like we’ve been in … Read more
Anne Kirkpatrick got the ass end of the cybersphere handed to her on New Year’s Day and for several days following it. She looked like another clueless diversity hire, a problem she failed to resolve – much like Plan B (Kamal Harris) – by opening her mouth and speaking. People died, and her response didn’t … Read more
NewScientist, which I take to mean they peddle the new scientism, got some help from Google the other day. They have an article about the Jetstream that was pushed to the top of the news feed. It posits the notion that your emissions broke it. The problem with the new science is that the old … Read more
The Climate Cult is so obsessed with how everything causes their thing that they frequently trip over themselves on the way to the supposed Climate Change Narrative Bank.
Water, water everywhere, but get ready for odd, even watering bans. Yes, spring has sprung like a stripper from a giant cake as the whores in government line up to spring regulatory speed bumps at our summertime fun. Will water bans be part of it? Is the Pope a Marxist?
Living in rural New Hampshire, even where the flatlanders roam, is very different from most urban settings. Most of America is like that, truly, so I’m not speaking to a fringe audience. But this is a group who, if not familiar with city living, has (hopefully) forgotten how different it is. For example, I live … Read more
Between 1931 and 1944, we got Frankenstein, The Bride of Frankenstein, the Son of Frankenstein, The Ghost of Frankenstein, Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman, and House of Frankenstein. A name pronounced incorrectly for decades until Gene Wilder straightened us out in Mel Brooks, Young Frankenstein.
NOAA’s July update is out, and the first thing I checked was the statewide average precipitation. We got a lot of rain in July of 2023. The statewide average was 8.61 inches, more than double the 100-year average. But it did not set a record.
Last week was a banner week for climate crisis headlines. Washington Post: “The world is hotter than it’s been in thousands of years.” AP: “For the third time this week, Earth sets unofficial heat record.” Politico: “Scientists are freaking out about surging temperatures.”
I find it amusing that the Bangor Daily News – in the middle of what feels like monsoon season across New England and successive days of news about flooding – felt the need to run a public interest piece on drought and the state’s drought task force.
Early in the year, I prepped the battlespace for what typically happens around New England. Everyone yells “drought” and “climate change!” But by year’s end, we have our average annual precip or more. This year has been wet. You could say there’s been a systemic lack of drought.
