Could, may & might are my enemies, my friends are facts & realism.

@Don_Penim @MatthewHavicon Amazingly, and I nearly choked on my sustainably farmed boiled egg, our bastion of all things green, the Guardian, actually got it right.
Fire suppression, practiced in recent decades, actually has the opposite effect, trees burn instead of undergrowth.

@chrispydog Can't laugh at that one - I'm a little hoarse just now

@ChrisMartzWX I remember a clip from some years back where a heavily coated UK TV reporter was leaning into the wind, struggling to talk, when a woman with long, unruffled hair walked past in the background in t-shirt & shorts!

@dbirch214 They were scrambled, but standard response expected an incursion from the East, from the western Atlantic - they were directed there first. Took hours to return - far too late.

@AllisonPearson Samuel Pepys recorded in his diary another very wet & dreary spring/summer in 1663. Nothing new - move on.

@FernandoLeanme @dbirch214 Nah - they wooden go uphill and they wooden go downhill - wooden do any better on the flat too.

@DrCharlesL Exacerbated by boredom, frustration and lack of human contact?

@UseTechForGood @aDissentient @thegwpfcom Lowest UK capacity factor 0.92% this month. 0.23GW out of 25GW installed.

@dbirch214 With CO2-boosted phytoplankton at the bottom of their food chain. Another example of the wonders of CO2.

@AussieVal10 It's OK - he says it'll go through windows when people don't stay home and Isolate.
So stay home and it'll stay outside your double-glazing.
What about greenhouses?

@StopTheseThings I've said it before - better to install them upside down and cut out all the aggravation.

[Tony Price @TonyPrice241]

@metoffice You mean you don't know what we're gonna get?

[Tony Price @TonyPrice241]

@thegwpfcom Today's UK update - actual data rather than wishful thinking. Installed capacity 25GW. Peak output rarely exceeds 10GW. Minimum is negligible.

@LofayPeter @JaggerMickOZ @Soulphood @Matt_KeanMP @zalisteggall @GladysB "Renewables" disciples don't recognise some common words, like sundown, clouds, blocking high etc.

@dbirch214 Far better than on the streets, in parks, on buses, trains and outside shops and supermarkets, as I see every day.

This is the ruined but partially reconstructed Arbeia Roman fort in South Shields. First excavated in the 1870s, all modern buildings were cleared from the site in the 1970s and this is now managed as Arbeia Roman Fort and Museum #heritage #monument #HeritageAdvisory

@CharlesTannock Making predictions is a very imprecise science, especially if those predictions involve future events!

@Knutti_ETH @wxrisk Climate change causes selective long-term memory loss. Nothing bad happened anywhere before 1970.

@chrispydog Cognitive dissonance, pure and simple - if it fits their skewed view of reality, it's automatically accepted as fact, no proof needed. Everything else goes in the non-recycle bin, and is instantly and conveniently ignored or ridiculed.
