I had the pleasure of testifying in a Congressional hearing to reauthorize the National Windstorm Impact Reduction Program (NWIRP). As #climatechange intensifies extreme weather events, NWIRP is a critical piece of a national climate adaptation strategy.

@CarlRMetz@SpectacularPods@AlanMCole There is a 2nd angle (and a third). Don’t forget the footage of the flight 11 impact from a car about to enter the Lincoln Tunnel on the NJ side. The 3rd angle is from a camera to the east of the towers that recorded a frame every 4 seconds so it looks like still pics.
@StrsssTeme@cpebbles21@bannedcornczar Not every feed had the angle you saw. I’ve seen angles where it is difficult to tell if the entire building had collapsed immediately. However, even in most of those circumstances, they figure it out pretty quick so you’re kind of whining about nothing
@MatthewWielicki I’ve never met a fellow climate scientist who doesn’t think natural variability is important. Not one out of hundreds. However, I’ve met a few absolutely abysmal activist scientists who are seemingly completely unaware that the US only takes up 2% of the global surface area.
@augfordpdoggie@Ol_TimeFootball@theblood85@RamsNFL Same here. Jumped on that '79 bandwagon at 6 years old. I mean, just look at those uniforms! I had no chance. Throw in the underdog status in SB14 (hung in there for 3 quarters) and it was over. Fan for life.
@DrGuitar I'm a guitarist and love Page but this also shows just how much John Paul Jones' bass line really drives the chorus in Ramble On (probably the verse too).
@LeBatardShow People need to learn statistics. Yes Rams are loaded but still very unlikely to win the SB (maybe 15% chance). Just because a whopping 2-3 “super teams” didn’t win the Super Bowl, really doesn’t mean anything. If we had 100 super team seasons to compare then we could say somethin
@RogerPielkeJr At NIST we would conduct congressionally mandated technical investigations of major disasters, some taking years (like NTSB for disasters). Only after the investigation was complete would we weigh in on causes. You're no different than the climate alarmists you so actively decry.
