@capitalweather Summers would be a lot hotter in the East if we didn’t have high SO2 levels. For many locals, like Cincinnati, hottest summer days pre coal burning (1955) were hotter than current ones. Stunning lack of summer heat records the last couple decades.
@purplesuit@capitalweather No kidding, aerosol masking doesn’t matter much at night. Also doesn’t matter nearly as much this time of year which is why in winter we are on par with low SO2 regions for warmth. Urbanization is driving the record sea temps as well.
@LeonSimons8 We blew up Nord Stream so Europe would miss out on cheap Russian energy and instead could buy expensive LNG from us. We’re wonderful allies to Europe.
@ECOWARRIORSS He likes coal and the SO2 aerosols are the only thing keeping it from being much hotter. Trumpie actually keeps our Midwest summers cooler than Jill Stein would. Keep Midwest summers cool again.
