Yep, and scary in the whole point of modern “news”, ain’t it?

My favorite is how what we used to call “cold weather” is now a “polar vortex”, or what we used to call a “low pressure center” is now a “bomb cyclone”.

Seriously, these weather programs should come with a "parental guideline" rating. But...in the meantime...if you'd like to work on your Queen's English...

If only California had built more reservoirs to do something about the wonderful, record rainfalls we’ve been getting out here.

Deserts turning lush green. What’s not to like about the changing climate.

And then we've got idiots like Bill Gates who want to seed the atmosphere with particulates to bring the temperature down.

Do you know what's far, far worse than global warming? Global cooling.

I was there the week after super bowl. Went wading in it with wife and daughter. I never did find a spot over half-knee deep, and some people looked like they were out in it almost a half mile.

I recall there was a massive volcanic explosion in the southeast pacific last year. The indications was that it tossed up enough water vapor into the atmosphere that it would impact rain and heat over the next 12-18 months in the pacific.

That seems to have happened. But no one ever talks about it.

Combined with the jet stream fluctuations in the Pacific...we are likely in for another rainy year—with some resolution coming in a year or so.

The planet is a wonderful machine.

It’s an El Nino year. I’ll bet it’s dry again, next winter.

They money quote in the report was “where once an ancient lake stood”.

In other words, in the long span of earth history this “new” lake is not an anomaly.

The traditional TV weatherman doesn't stand a chance against the weatherbabes of today!

Imagine that at one time, meteorology was a rather serious career in which you needed a four-year degree so that you could fully understand isobars, occluded fronts, and how to properly interpret a barometer before they would even think of putting you on TV to try and explain it to the folks watching at home.

If you could not explain the difference between cumulous clouds and nimbostratus clouds, you need not even apply!

Nowadays, they are only putting hot babes on the TV and slipping a few graphics behind her as she wiggles and giggles in front of them. The real meteorologists are upstairs in cramped cubicles, drinking styrofoam cups of stale office coffee, while they parse down all the incoming data and weather models, so that they can come up with some simple scripts for the weatherbabe in the fancy studio downstairs to explain about the weather in her tight dress and super high heels.

Good luck preserving the waters when Death Valley’s weather gets to 120 degrees F. with 2% relative humidity, which is going to happen before very many months have passed.

That’s the truth. There was only one weatherman when I was growing up...Clyde Wilson “Cloudy” McClain Jr. (Of course, we only had two channels on TV, LOL.) He died young...61...but he’ll long be remembered after these new “weather babes” frontal occlusions are drooping to their waist.

There’s actually a male weatherman on one of the local news channels. He lives in the neighborhood across the road from our neighborhood. We had a craft sales event at the clubhouse parking lot and his wife was involved. It was a nasty day and she was communicating with hubby to keep us abreast of an incoming storm. It all worked out, but it was funny having our very own professional weatherman.

They are calling it Lake Manuel?

Why not Lake Death, if it’s in Death Valley?

“ Until maybe 3-6 months ago, I’d never heard this term. ”

It was used when I lived in California in the 80’s.
It’s a term that actually describes something fairly accurately and isn’t all that hyped.
When an extreme amount of moisture flows in in a narrow section of the atmosphere ; just like a river.

Yes, I knew that the term itself was relatively benign, but of course, now it always has to be associated with, and blamed on, “climate change”.

Fair point, a wedding ring does cut off circulation.

Here we have a weather witch.

Hooked nose and chin, but always well groomed, well dressed, well spoken, and very personable and liked by those around her.

Were I a younger man, I'd say definite marriage material!

She would never stray from a man that took her.
