We're going to get lots of proof of climate change this year...

 

[JohnnySavage]

Looks like Arthur will give a wet spot.

 

[miles]

Can we expect the worst this year like they expected last year, and the year before that, and the year before that.....

A hurricane thread with 5 posts, and two of them are the political chuckleheads trying to get some clever points.


Would you guys give it a rest ffs?

Attention whores have no choice.

 

[Wrong Element]

The expectation is for fewer Atlantic hurricanes than typical because of the El Niño.


Of course, I get my weather news from weather folk, and not from political folk. I find it really helps!

So you're one of those science weirdos.

 

[Liar]

We should have a Hurricane Pool.

Which do y'all pick as this season's big-uns?

I'm hoping Nana wreaks news-worthy havoc, just cause it would sound silly on CNN.

 

[Que]

Shoulda named "Paullette" "Polo" instead.

 

[ChinaBandit]

Gonzalo? Who thinks these names up...

I got blown offshore by Bertha once.

I hope she did it with enthusiasm and swallowed.

Please keep your hurricanes on your side of the Atlantic.

Bertha did considerable damage over here.

We are heading for a record wet and cold August.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

We keep adjusting our CO2 output in order to direct one at Wales...

 

[Lancecastor]

Arthur was a nasty fucker; power was out at the cottage for a week.

Aren't you heading into the months where "wet and cold" are pretty much the norm? Well, except I remember that September can still be nice. And don't forget dark. My fond memories of winter in the UK are summed up with those three adjectives: dark, wet, and cold. But it did make the summers all that more enjoyable.

 

[tactful]

Has, "The Old Farmer Almanac", verified this yet?

On an aside:
I hope you hava a nice warm winter jacket, because,
it's gonna get frickin' cold.

If you blinked, you'd have missed missed the "d" in this year's list of tropical storms.
