There are far too many variables about a hurricane to pigeon hole them as we humans try to do. <br /><br />Already, we are preparing for the new season. We're stocking up on emergency supplies, checking the condition of those supplies that last for many years, and planning our best westerly route out of the area when our options are down to one -- "RUN!"<br /><br />Alan is correct in this article. <br /><br />Do yourself a favor and pay a visit to your local Weather Service Office and ask for a tour. It is a real eye-opener. <br /><br />J.D.

I said that the claims made by the IPCC were wrong and those now making those claims in the name of climate change are just as wrong. Yes, there was a period of warming from about 1850 on. For the past 17 years, however, the Earth has been in a cooling cycle.Alan Carubahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901162110385985193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196554259323465442.post-88906679197744991192014-06-03T05:49:23.442-07:002014-06-03T05:49:23.442-07:00Telling the future is a game of chance.

Fact #1 weather and climate are two different things. Weather is short term and therefore extremely unpredictable after two days. Climate is the change over the various years. So when you say there are no facts to support the global warming of the world I have to say look towards historical occurrences as your answer if you need any more help NASA keeps a record of the weather since 1880s. Each year the temperature rises slowly and if you think slow is okay for the world then understand that almost every scientist in the world estimates that a 2 degree change can wipe us out. So I say write about something that you may actually get liked for. Start telling people to stop using fossil fuels and look to a solar and wind. Just a thought.Peace Love Revoulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18277931557660536728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196554259323465442.post-29697321048360814642014-06-02T15:07:42.636-07:002014-06-02T15:07:42.636-07:00Well said, Alan - If we can't predict the weat...Well said, Alan - If we can't predict the weather with 100% certainty 24 hours in advance, then how the HELL can anyone predict the coming of Global Warming, or the next Ice Age?<br /><br />Like with "The Shape of Things To Come" there are too many variables in the equation.<br /><br />Ronbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02767498198886077632noreply@blogger.com
