I typically write a few dozen articles every summer and fall about the Handmaiden media’s hyperbolic coverage of the Atlantic hurricane season. We didn’t have one this year. It’s approaching mid-October, and we’ve got our first of the year. And sure, yes, it absolutely has to have a mostly unpronounceable name. Isaias. How about Cheniquwa … Read more
Whether you like them or not, the hurricane season posts are a critical balance to the fearmongering agenda of the Climate Cult. More and stronger storms. That’s why we (or at least I) do these. Media bias is strong when the weather presents the opportunity, so we work to provide balance, but no one seems … Read more
A few reminders to start. No matter what they say, the alleged problem is the warming that you cause (even though it’s not you). None of their models work (if you want to read a wonky article about one that does, but doesn’t predict climate Armageddon, look here). The entire exercise is about ending free-market … Read more
This lands on the recurring theme of these posts. They still don’t know. It is a few days away, and they have technology and models and a few decades of history and they’ve no clue what they will do.
As predicted, Tropical Storm Erin escalated quickly into a hurricane and then rapidly to a Category 5 hurricane. The Climate Marxists were dancing in their crime-laden, poop stained, needle-littered streets. Look! Cat 5, like so fast, it’s global Warming! YOU DID THIS TO ME! Be sure you shout it using your best Ren Hoek impersonation. … Read more
Invest 97L (officially tropical storm Erin, after the overnight) is hot off the western coast of Africa and is likely to have formed into a cyclone when you read this (it did). It is one of a handful of named storms this year, none of them ever rising to the level of a hurricane, but … Read more
We are seven weeks into the Hurricane season without a single hurricane. I blame Global Warming, specifically the current cycle resulting from the massive infusion of water vapor into the atmosphere following the 2022 Hunga Tonga eruption. Water vapor is the primary greenhouse gas, and it puts the other pretenders to shame. The Earth uses … 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 sky is blue, water is wet, and each year, about this time, the ‘ Grok reviews NOAA’s annual hurricane predictions. It’s not that we’re overly interested in hurricanes, though you’d be hard pressed to prove otherwise. There are over 100 articles in recent years on the subject, but for a good reason. The science. … Read more
America and Americans are the most generous on Earth. The government is generous on our behalf, spreading our tax dollars around the globe, and thousands of churches and charities rely on the generosity of giving Americans. Over 170 countries receive more than $70 billion every year, and this is from an America that is in … Read more
As predictions go, the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season went better than usual. In recent years, Mother Earth has stymied the experts at every turn, refusing to bend the knee to their predictions. That is probably because Mother Nature doesn’t mix science with emotions or the partisan politics required to keep the grant money flowing. Unless … Read more
Hurricanes are a pillar of the climate fearmongering community, so we tend to spend (perhaps too much) time on them. We think it matters. The conquest of American liberty is paved with things like government control of health care and energy (through climate policy), and 2024 was supposed to be the year the earth got … Read more
Following Hurricane Helene, many private helicopter pilots launched their own search and rescue missions. One would think government officials would welcome the help of these volunteers, but instead, they harassed them and even threatened to arrest them! For example, one private helicopter pilot rescued an individual stranded by Helene. Unfortunately, he was threatened with arrest … Read more
Kirk is adrift, Leslie is lost, and Invest 97L is a hair west of Cape Verde and likely to follow them around the central Atlantic. Milton burned out fast after a CAT 3 landing (Sorry, climateers – no Cat 6 superstorm), making a mess, but that’s what hurricanes do, and a lot less often than … Read more
The prolonged drought of landfall hurricanes during the global warming era has been a sore spot for the Climate Chicken(s) Little. Regular readers know this and have come here regularly to reload their narrative blow torches for battles in the multi-platformed, not always social internet media universe. A search for Hurricane produces nearly 300 results. … Read more
From Maui to Asheville, NC, the people have spoken, and Joe and Kamala, you’re fired. We needed water, food, and shelter, and you gave us high tide photo-ops in Reheboth and let it roll on black bets in Vegas. As the wildfires in Hawaii and Helene showed us in the southeast, you can have leaders … Read more
You might not be interested in posts about the Atlantic hurricane season, but you should. It is a pillar of the climate cult mythology to justify political tyranny. The whole project is economic, disguised behind scientism, and operates like a religion. And their prophets are lousy prognosticators. They get nothing right, but this year’s Atlantic … Read more
If your energy cult predicted more and stronger hurricanes, why exactly should we invest in and rely on an energy source that is susceptible to damage from them? That’s a good question, but it’s not supposed to make sense like most everything else in the climate change policy universe. Besides, the people in charge will … Read more
We followed Tropical Storm Francine from her infancy, and as expected, it hit Louisiana as a Category 2 hurricane. The Louisana coast is a dangerous place to take up residence if you are allergic to storm surges. It floods quickly and often, so the media can’t resist the urge to break out the climate hyperbole. … Read more
With only five days until the cyclone season peak (9/10/24), the climate kids are all a flutter. NOAA is simultaneously tracking five disturbances across the Atlantic basin that could develop into cyclones. How likely is that? Not very. Not yet. I modified the latest NOAA map with their percentage chance for each disturbance. At this … Read more
