A hurricane would be the prefect excuse for this congress to get together and formulate another trillion dollar give-a-way to their favorite friends in other countries... for the NWO... for their climate communists buddies in Europe.
It is normal for Tornado alley to get frequent spring tornados. We have four facilities in tornado alley and it is a major concern each year for employee safety, facility damage, and lost productivity. The summer tornados that I am referring to are very common, though no where as severe as the spring tornados in tornado alley. The ones that hit us in the summer are usually in the F0-F1 range. They typically drop down out of a cloud and do not last long.
I don't know about the rest of the global warming effects, but GW is making elephants angry. One man in Thailand was ripped in half after he persuaded his elephant to work a little longer than the elephant wanted to on a hot summer day. Overworked elephant rips Thai owner in half A woman in India was first killed by an elephant when walking to get water, and then had her corpse dragged off a funeral pyre and stomped by the same elephant. That elephant needs some anger management counseling . . . Elephant kills woman in India — then returns to trample her corpse at her funeral
Well now that it's officially September, we can grab this out of the closet. So today marks the 1st time since 1997 that no named storm occurred during the month of August. Additionally, it marked the 3rd fewest storms by this point since record keeping began. Climate changers of course say climate change may have had an impact on the number of storms this year but I see it as a good thing regardless. But, there are 2 months left in the season and everything could hit the fan. In 1961, another quiet year by this point had 3 category 4 hurricanes and a cat 5 hurricane in the month of September. So let's cross our fingers that the models were wrong and we skate by with a quiet hurricane season.
Hopefully we don't get one we are still in allocation on roofing materials would be a lot of blue roofs
We booked a beach house in Walton County for the third week in September and paid extra for hurricane insurance.
Weather Channel probably changed the rules again without consulting NOAA. You know the media and their love of science.
I’m going to sit this one out. With the current shortages of materials and labor, hurricane recovery will be a shit show. I’m praying that none hit land.
So far, so good. There is nothing in the Atlantic or coming off the coast of Africa that is troublesome for the US. The two storms headed for the open northern Atlantic waters are all we've had of any significance as the only shipping is affected.
EF2. Get those from time to time especially with cold air aloft. Rare to see in August, but it can happen. Most of the time those storms produce large hail instead of tornadoes.
Apparantly tornadoes are not too unusual in FL in the summer in FL, so I was sort of wrong about that. I wasn’t saying tornadoes are impossible in summer, hell I’ve seen waterspouts with my own eyes. Just that they are “unusual”. But there is a phenomenon with the sea breeze which helps create tornadoes, so I guess not that unusual. However those types of tornadoes are usually F0 or F1 and don’t do much more damage than a severe thunderstorm or tropical storm. If you look for the deadliest tornadoes they generally happen in early spring when we still get those blasts of colder air hitting the tropical air. That’s where you get the potential. According to this FL has seen one F4 tornado - in April 1966. Several F3 tornadoes. Tornadoes - Florida Climate Center I know hurricanes often have tornadoes forming within the bands, and I’d wonder why they don’t count, but maybe they just can’t track them as effectively. We are in an area that got wrecked by Irma and there are paths where the general consensus was a tornado must have hit that specific place (you could even sort of see how the cypress trees where knocked down in a narrow path, like it was hit by the eye of the storm, except it wasn’t the eye, it was a band that may have contained a tornado of only a few hundred meters across) . But I don’t see it on the list, they don’t seem to count tornadoes within a hurricane, or perhaps they just can’t designate them separately.
