I know we have a few Florida users here. The state should be underwater by all estimates from the 90's. It's the same. The barrier island I went to annually in the panhandle for 35 years hasn't changed and got smashed by 2-3 hurricanes in that time with heavy erosion.

Sea level moves with tectonic plate movement. Not ice, rain or temperature. Sure we might get more rain. But even the hurricanes have been lame, and just heavy rain being the biggest problem. They seem less frequent. The evaporation has been more and places see 20" plus of rain. The winds really haven't been a problem lately.

Was just in tropical storm Sara for the tail end in Mexico. An average midwest thunderstorm is exponentially worse than my first tropical storm experience. We were just walking around outside with raincoats on. No lightening risk. Breezy, maybe 50mph gusts. Fell asleep on the balcony outside during it. Natural rain and wind/tree noise is the most peaceful white noise you can get.... along with a bunch of beer. Slept in a hammock too. Best sleep that trip.

God damn Mexicans and their marble though. Fucking ice skating rink. I was good but saw at least a dozen people biff it hard falling on wet tile outdoors. Like potential bone breakers and staff needing to assist them. I brought my Merrill hiking shoes and had great traction. I don't prep at home, but I'm a vacation prepper. Especially in tourist areas where it's 2-5X's the price at home.

Undersea vulcanism has been injecting trillions of tons of water vapor into the atmosphere. Water vapor is at least an order of magnitude greater than CO2 in terms of greenhouse warming. Where are the undersea volcanic eruptions in the current climate models? No fucking where.

To paraphrase "Glengarry Glenn Ross," the models are WEAK.

https://dailysceptic.org/2024/12/09/massive-cover-up-launched-by-u-k-met-office-to-hide-its-103-non-existent-temperature-measuring-stations/

Last month, the Daily Sceptic highlighted the practice at the U.K. Met Office of inventing temperature averages from over 100 non-existent measuring stations. Helpfully, the Met Office went so far as to supply coordinates, elevations and purposes of the imaginary sites. Following massive interest across social media and frequent reposting of the Daily Sceptic article, the Met Office has amended its ludicrous claims. The move has not been announced in public, needless to say, since drawing attention to this would open a pandora’s box and run the risk of subjecting all the Met Office temperature claims to wider scrutiny. Instead, the Met Office has discreetly renamed its “U.K. climate averages” page as “Location-specific long-term averages”.

Visegrád 24 also quoted Sweden’s deputy prime minister and energy minister, Ebba Busch, as being “furious with the Germans.” The article continued, explaining that due to Germany’s decision to shutter its nuclear plants, “people in southern Sweden and southern Norway now have [to] pay $5 for a 10-minute shower.”

Same tribe depicted in the film "Killers of the Flower Moon"

Italian firm was even excavating minerals from tribal land w/o permission. Why would they need minerals to erect wind farms?

They got hundreds of millions in US tax credits for putting these up that they don't have to pay back.

They essentially raped the Osage and got paid by Uncle Sam to do so. History repeating itself.

“Defendants are liable for continuing trespass and shall remove the wind farm from the Osage Minerals Estate and return the Osage Minerals Estate to its pre-trespass condition on or before December 1, 2025.”

It’s difficult to overstate the importance of this ruling. Enel has said that removing the 84 turbines in the Osage wind project would cost the company $300 million. Whatever the cost, the fact that a federal court has ordered the removal of the turbines is unprecedented.

Can’t forget water vapor. Molecule for molecule, it’s on par with CO2 as a greenhouse gas, but much more abundant, ranging from 0.2% at the poles to 4% at the equator:

“Water vapor, the most important greenhouse gas, fluctuates with temperature. The percent of water vapor in the cold Arctic and Antarctic (and highest Alpine regions) may reach as low as 0.2 percent while the warmest tropical air may contain up to 4 percent water vapor.”

All green measures are designed to fail, and blaming the food animals either for global warming or pandemics is Globalist demon multi tasking by creating the virtue signaling handle to also introduce starvation or at the very least rampant malnutrition to enhance their industrial food and water poisons .

Of course, all the environmental guilt trip predictive programming goes back a long way, from Rachel Carson's fake alarmist shit and Jane Goodall et alia with their fake monkey shit to imposing guilt trips on straws and recycling. It is their symbology closest to your day to day activities.

Indeed. Undersea vulcanism in the past several years have lifted gigatons of water vapor into the atmosphere. Aside from an article or two I've never seen any other reporting on this.

Yup, and comet debris continues to add water to the Earth.

Yet it doesn't for Mercury, Venus and Mars.

environmental guilt trip

Funny how this environmental guilt trip is never applied to cel phones or dryers. Cel phones, with the multitude of radio towers, are a huge energy suck. Landline phones are very energy efficient using very little electricity except for the ringer. Older folks remember that landline phone worked even during power failures. Clothes dryers are joule heat energy consuming monsters whereas the clothesline is a free wind and solar device available to anyone who claims to be green.

Gotta live where you can use them is the only problem. My clothes would freeze today and I'm not doing that in the house with 5 people. Load a day. Would work in TX, AZ, CA, etc. but I need my dryer. I'm also not green and give no shits. My nat gas costs are super low.

Clothes dry just fine in freezing temps outside.

You must have a good spin cycle on your washer. No chance in hell in the coming days here. Let me know what clothing DRIES in 16ºF highs and 8ºF lows with wind. It will be frozen outdoors.

You can have one of those dumb indoor clothes line things, I just want my clothes dry. Do a load or two a day. I don't have time for that shit.

Does anyone here active actually have kids? Starting to think no.

I guess you missed the last part of the sentence to anyone who claims to be green. Finding solutions for wintertime drying is a minor inconvenience if one believes AGW is an existential threat.

RWSGFY says

Yes, all those decades where families typically had washing machines but not dryers (1940s thru early 1970s) must have found a way to make a clothesline work in the winter.

"Can’t forget water vapor. Molecule for molecule, it’s on par with CO2

In fact, CO2 is not warming anything because
(1) Earth is not emitting radiation at the frequency which CO2 absorbs, namely 15 microns.
(2) Therefore the amount CO2 in the atmosphere is irrelevant. In fact, during the Paleozoic,
Earth experienced an ice age for 40 million years at a 4,200 ppm CO2 level. And CO2 at
4,200 ppm did not prevent the ice age from happening.
(3) Given that our planet is roughly at 59°F then Earth is radiating unimpeded into space
at 10 microns.
(4) CO2 as a greenhouse gas is so irrelevant that IR Astronomy is alive and well on our planet.
(5) If anything is warming our planet, it is water vapor and the fact that Earth is over 70%
oceans! And thank God for the oceans - and the resulting water vapor - because it is these
oceans that are keeping our planet habitable!.

The basic incorrect assumption that people make about the sun is that its energy output is a constant, like a light bulb with a watt number on it.
The sun's energy output varies, and this means no conclusion can be made about what effect our activities have on the earth's temperature.
Cosmic rays in particular vary; at CERN in Switzerland they created clouds experimentally using cosmic rays.
Cloud formation vastly impacts temperatures; of course you have been to the beach and when the clouds came in, where did you go? Home.

But you are not a member of the 'Party of Science'. So STFU, MAGARacist! :)

I have seen bullshit replies to that like, "But the CO2 and Methane is heating the oceans and that adds water vapour (<-- when you see Brit spelling like that, you're dealing with an America jealous 'tard, btw) into that atmosphere!"
