Just your typical weather and climate enthusiast!

A true skeptic is skeptical of other skeptics.

Here we have Tony Heller claiming the NY Times is full of crap using station data from Unionville, MO. What his graph doesn't show you? The missing days in Unionville's dataset (most of which occurred in recent years)

[Mathius @Mathius38]

And modern events don't compare to some of the behemoths of the distant past.

Missoula Floods comes to mind.

[Paul Roundy @PaulRoundy1]

That kind of event can occur independent of climate change. An increase in the Melt rate can destabilize glaciers, but even in a constant climate, mountain glaciers fluctuate at their endpoints and occasionally become unstable and shed mass. There are several historical events of similar scale, some well-known ones in South America even over a century ago resulted in loss of thousands of lives.

@RARohde @ChrisMartzWX Could end up benefitting some productive crop growing regions too, resulting in surpluses entering the global market.

Global trade is the true safety net for adverse local weather patterns.

@ZacksJerryRig "Not to be an alarmist"

Then proceeds to be alarmist.

Deliberately ignoring 150 years of human progress to make an ignorant point.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@EthonRaptor @PaulRoundy1 @charlesmurray I can't tell if this is trolling.

It's a dataset looking at a conglomerate of stations, and then averaging amongst that conglomerate how many days in a year a certain temp threshold is reached (95, 100, 105) per station.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@RARohde The only thing I could think of seeing this was the December 1934 Chinook Event. Fairbanks has only ever had 3 December days where the temperature stayed above freezing all day. All 3 of those days occurred in December of 1934.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@PaulRoundy1 @charlesmurray Looks to me like just number of 95F, 100F, and 105F days per year, averaged across the US dataset. The Midwest specifically is the region that has larger variations in these temp thresholds in any given year, so the graph is more or less kind of biased towards the Midwest.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@EthonRaptor @PaulRoundy1 @charlesmurray That doesn't make any sense. It's looking at avg # of days above 95F, 100F, 105F per year.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@PaulRoundy1 @MatthewWielicki One of those instances where the claim doesn't come close to passing the BS detector. I haven't read the study, but I'm guessing this uses some LNT type of assumption, an assumption that has time and time again shown to be heavily flawed when applied to health.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@Revkin @undarkmag @AlexanderKaurov I've always side-eyed near every paper attempting to quantify economic impact in the future due to climate change. It seems like one of the main assumptions is always that we humans will not adapt to the changes of our climate, and we are just sitting ducks awaiting our fate.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

This is one of the most impressive analyses I've ever seen. All from AI.

[Ryan Maue @RyanWeather]

Checking out @Grokipedia article on Tropical Cyclones (Hurricanes) and Climate Change.

It's a masterpiece. I could not have written this better myself (or with help of @RogerPielkeJr)

The outrage over Kimmel’s canning is incredibly stupid, but it’s also enormously rich coming from the same media outlets who have cheered the government actually censoring people, particularly during COVID.

Let me know if you can spot the difference in tone? ⤵️

[Mathius @Mathius38]

We are still virtue signaling getting the jab?

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

Today I got my COVID-19 booster.

The science is clear, and so is my mission: Protect New Yorkers, no matter what Washington throws at us.

[Ethical Skeptic ☀ @EthicalSkeptic]

An ideology that cannot be defended by means of evidence and deductive logic, will inevitably be enforced by violence.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@Camburnclimate But, not just that. Most sensible humans know what happened today was awful. Only a very vocal and crazy minority say otherwise. A 'hit' would be political suicide for the left. Straight up.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@Camburnclimate No one can confirm at the moment. But it's VERY difficult to see it any other way.

I know you're joking here, but let's pretend there is some world where it was a hit hired by someone from the left in power, how stupid would they be to assume the 'hit' would not be returned?

[Mathius @Mathius38]

Yup. Less subsidies and taxpayer money financing unreliable intermittent power. A shame.

[Martin Heinrich @SenatorHeinrich]

Translation: Trump says he’s increasing your electricity prices.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

The oceans are mostly warming slower than the global average. That's how.

[Red Pill Dispenser @redpilldispensr]

How is it possible for every single country to be warming at a faster rate than all the rest?

Yet more proof it's a scam.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

Is the new strategy here to completely ignore records at all official weather stations situated at airports?

[Mathius @Mathius38]

@MatthewWielicki With other stations nearby in the upper 90s, and one near Tampa also at 100, it isn't unreasonable at all to believe Tampa legitimately hit 100.

[Mathius @Mathius38]

New revelation on all things climate change everyone!

[Creighton Lange @CreightonLange]

@Mathius38 @WxNB_ Nothing coming out of a "weather station" situated in an airport can be thought of as real data.
