His bullshit goes on and on. More made up bullshit for whatever is needed. He’s like a pet turd

More tropical fun. . .

In an exceptionally rare occurrence for late October, two new tropical storms formed simultaneously on Friday afternoon in the Atlantic—Olga in the Gulf of Mexico and Pablo in the northeast Atlantic near the Azores Islands. The formation of Olga and Pablo brings this year’s tally of Atlantic tropical cyclone activity to 16 named storms, 5 hurricanes, 3 intense hurricanes, and an ACE index of 120. The 1981 – 2010 averages for these quantities by October 25 were 10.8 named storms, 5.6 hurricane, 2.5 intense hurricanes, and an ACE index of 95.5, according to Dr. Phil Klotzbach, so 2019 is well above average in most metrics.

Something they'll just have to get used to.

Folks in Venice know how they feel.

This week I learned that there are a ton of Bangladeshi immigrants living in Venice, running tourist businesses, etc. Someone needs to enlighten these people about the concept of 'altitude' lol

The joy of hurricane season is that it is never over, it just moves south for the winter. Now they are coming in four packs.

Global warming is accelerating. Not a good time to buy property in Miami Beach.

Tesla stock zooms to best in two years on China factory optimism

Last month was the second warmest November in 140 years of recordkeeping, reported NOAA’s National Center for Environmental Information (NCEI) in its November summary of global climate. The November warmth enhances the likelihood that 2019 will be the second warmest year in global records dating back to 1880.

Only November 2015 was warmer than last month, by just 0.09°C (0.16°F), said NOAA. The third warmest November, in 2013, was 0.11°C (0.2°F) cooler than last month. The six warmest Novembers have all occurred in the 2010s, according to NOAA.

Hot in the keys.

In this extraordinary year, Marathon:

• set monthly-average heat records for February, April, May, June and October

This sucks. I see it was a C-130. I understand that many of those refitted for fire suppression duty did not get a wing spar upgrade that left them vulnerable to fatigue failure.
