Look at the convection(red color, coldest highest cloud tops) become completely solid in the last 2 hours or so. This may be due to the fact it has been in water in the 84 degree range, and its moving into water that is several degrees warmer and fairly deep, relatively speaking...

I do listen. It is kind of like watching the one of the televangelists on TV who heal everyone, speak in tongues, sell holy annointing oil, and shout "praise Jesus" every other sentence. I truly feel sorry for the gullible ones who buy into that crap, but it sure is entertaining.Quote:

see page 11.
It would be nice to see a table like this for global hurricanes.
I'm sure it was caused by AGW too, just like the one in 1935 with 892 mb that was caused by our ancestors dumping GIGATONS of CO2 into the atmosphere.Quote:

And ya, not many lives lost, thank God Almighty! Terrible crop damage. When one of our poor neighbors lose $10,000 in property or crops, and their homes, that is like, well you know....
But Felix. When I got up this morning at 10 central...... 100 mph..... Now, 165.......This thing is the monster. Im not liking this.
Anybody want to take an over/under on 895 mb of measured pressure(before or during landfall)? That would put it in top 5 all time.
Ill even give 1/1 odds. My winnings go to Tech. Yours should, too.
I think we just keep better records...:icon_wink:Quote:

Incidently, if one looks at the average # of named storms/hurricanes/major (cat3+) storms by month and projects our early sampling through the season, we are statistically set to fall at the low end or BELOW the projected # of named storms/hurricanes/major storms as announced by all hurricane centers. There were 5 named storms and 1 hurricane/major hurricane through the end of August.
Global Warming is just a symptom. The root cause is overpopulation. Overpopulation is driving all of this. Global Warming is the earth tweeking the control system to bring things back to where they should be. Don't worry, everything will correct itself. Soon the higher temperatures will lead to draught and famine. Those that don't starve to death will be killed when the earth's nations start fighting over what is left. Once all that gets sorted out, things will return to normal. Stockpile rations and armaments now. It will all be ok eventually.
There you have it.
Now, I have a shelter to go dig and build. Fortunately, I am probably at an elevation that will protect me from the widespread flooding that is coming.
Good day.
