Wow aren’t those beautiful.
Chinese ducks. Peking out of the water.
Thanks for the ping, Daf!
Yep. But El Nino affects from previous El Nino finally got up into the Nor Cal latitudes. Takes time for water vapor to head north. We will see more El Ninos and longer El Ninos. Hope I am wrong, but central California will be experiencing biblical floods. Human engineering wont stand a chance. The water that makes mile high glaciers has to have some mechanism driving it out of the Oceans.
It is all part of complex cycle that only God really understands. People forget that we are still in an Ice Age.
Way to complex for humans to intellectual grasp and define. However, we may all know what is coming. There are clues. We have been through this before. It may require a leap of faith also, since our understanding of climate physics is so poor. Sort of like Jodie Foster after she returned from that strange space flight experience. But actually not quite that difficult. We were given clues as to what is coming. You have to figure it out on your own though. Getting it handed to you all at once, would be devastating.
The irony of the current panic is that the real danger to humanity is colder temperatures. Scientists are sure that the current interglacial period will end sometime “soon”. Geologically speaking “soon” could be anywhere from 50 to 1,000 years (hopefully the later).
When Santa Rosa, Sonoma county, gets another .12 inches of rain, that will break an all time record for annual rainfall.
Yet, there are still drought nazis in California from the Oregon border to the La Raza border still getting a paycheck telling us to conserve on water.
A friend, who recently visited the southlands of the state sent us pictures of the best annual Poppy flowers in that area in over 100 years.
Or is it a smartphone shot.?
Thank you.
Pictures are from my smartphone LG Stylus 2.
They had it all right science wise until the El Nino of 1998. Threw a monkey wrench into their science and they are 180 degrees out of phase now. Nothing is linear with regard to climate physics. It is a dynamic evolving system that has been stuck in a glacial loop period for awhile. But the fall back has begun and the sign of the change was the El Nino of 1998. We may end up with a solid constant El Nino that lasts hundreds of years. If not a thousand or two. Wink wink.
