@stevejjbw @raggedlines That was weather. Warmer is climate. That's how it works in this brave new world.

@JDobsyn6813 @raggedlines Coral hates warm water apparently.

[Macdara Bryan @MACD86330]

@TomANelson @mehdirhasan That's just weather in Minnesota. The high temperatures in France are an existential threat to the planet. That's the "science" of today.

@DRoverNova @TheFP Sword fights aren't considered combat?

@ClimateSageO @WeiZhangAtmos The sand doesn't disappear, It is transported by currents. Beaches form through the process of accretion. When a jetty or anything else is built into the water or a storm changes things, the currents change. Beaches come and go where water meets land.

@25_cycle @WeiZhangAtmos @_Almaqah Sand washes away, always has. Sand also forms beaches through accretion, always has. Beaches form and leave according to currents. There were beaches when the water was over 400' lower 20,000 years ago and they will exist whatever the ocean level. Basic Geomorphology.

@Willyboy2026 @WIRED I'm pretty well aware of the B.S. involved in these headlines. They love them some measurements from a peninsula sticking way out in the ocean currents at a latitude far from the pole.

@JunkScience All trees die inevitably but that one saddens me. 55 years ago I was thrilled to go in it and took an acorn from under it that I potted and grew. I was 7 and loved the Robin Hood stories. That tree had a long run.

@Willyboy2026 @WIRED The temperature is stuck 45f too warm. It should be -99f, this is truly catastrophic and will lead to the inundation of Denver Colorado. Al Gore was a prophet. Thank God for "Science" guiding our wise and noble politicians who drive our energy policies.

@thelastround67 @heatMcCauley @COLRICHARDKEMP That got me laughing

[Macdara Bryan @MACD86330]

@Liberfach0 That's a Hurley he's using.

@jxgiuliano @climacritic I have a degree in geology and remember my invertebrate paleontology professor teaching us about the rapid temperature changes of the Pleistocene. Heat transport in the oceans and D-O climatic events. Higher sea levels in the Holocene. We are pretty stable right now climatically.

@Nikinaki55 @ChrisMartzWX Why did you leave out Pome? That's always been what you call the English.

@20splentyforus A 10mph limit would save even more lives. It's time to put people first and reduce these speeds to a safer level.

[Macdara Bryan @MACD86330]

@ChrisGloninger @RichardLyon_ I think a class in Historical geology would have been good in that mix. One that focused on the Pleistocene and emphasized the Holocene and Eemian interglacials. Lots of decent proxy data and always the fascinating D-O climatic events to think about.

@P23M_ @DrSakriKaia @SpencerHakimian I was here for that election and misspellings were allowed after the Murkowski campaign lobbied for them. The courts and officials ruled that voter intent mattered. She would not have won otherwise.

[Macdara Bryan @MACD86330]

@fichtner_jan @RonTannert @JamesTate121 Then answer her

@LOBVMRespecter @WEschenbach @FeserEdward It's called the Hannibal directive I believe. Israel's policy in these situations.

[Macdara Bryan @MACD86330]

@WeiZhangAtmos @FeserEdward I don't remember the U.S. saying all of Japan was promised to them 3,000 years ago and they are taking it back. Not a student of history here so I could be wrong.

@ThoughtCrimes80 @layxsnv I always thought it was redundant, but my son was taught in school that a court case interpreted that and created one entity for lack of a comma. Apparently, it was very costly when assets were being divvied up. X just corrected my comma usage in this post.
