A ‘head scratcher’ – No Atlantic Hurricane by August in First Time in 11 Years

[skookerasbil]

More k00k losing..........nobody is keeping score, but shit......how many times have these people fucked up their predictions that have crashed and burned? On snow. Drought. Floods.......tornados.......hurricane. These fucks are wrong all the time and it brings zero level of curiosity to the true believers. Fascinating.

Then they say, "Oh yeah, just like our model predicted"

More kooks losing, sOn

yep......hey Frank.....go look at any current poll. Nobody gives a rats ass about this global warming shit anymore. These meatheads keep talking about the science........its like these business people who take out a 100K loan to start a business selling a product nobody gives a shit about and are stunned when the shit goes under. Some people just have this blind level of disconnect.........fascinating, but sure give some a place to go to make fun of people. I have always had a hoot in life making fun of eccentric assholes......its what I do.

A ‘head scratcher’ – No Atlantic Hurricane by August in First Time in 11 Years

Bloomberg News: August is about to end without an Atlantic hurricane for the first time since 2002, calling into question predictions of a more active storm season than normal.

Six tropical systems have formed in the Atlantic since the season began June 1 and none of them has grown to hurricane strength with winds of at least 74 miles (120 kilometers) per hour. Accumulated cyclone energy in the Atlantic, a measure of tropical power, is about 30 percent of where it normally would be, said Phil Klotzbach, lead author of Colorado State University’s seasonal hurricane forecasts.

“At this point, I doubt that a super-active hurricane season will happen,” Klotzbach said in an e-mail yesterday.

The most active part of the Atlantic season runs from Aug. 20 to about the first week of October. The statistical peak occurs on Sept. 10, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.​

The forecast:

FORECAST OF ATLANTIC SEASONAL HURRICANE ACTIVITY AND LANDFALL STRIKE PROBABILITY FOR 2013

We continue to anticipate an above-average season in 2013, although we have lowered our forecast slightly due to anomalous cooling in the eastern subtropical and tropical Atlantic. We expect an above-average probability of United States and Caribbean major hurricane landfall.​

The models are simply wrong.

Well now you've gone and jinxed us.

You used the "H" word in a thread title. No saying the "H" word until November!

It's no head scratcher. It's a kick ass la Nina; the same thing that's cut down surface warming and sliding heat into the deep ocean.

I am a hurricane nut that spent the better part of his youth watching these things...You're talking about NINO for a slow Atlantic.

We currently have a nina.

Stable air is killing this season. Weird season.

Wait, it's the wrong Nino/Nina too?!???!?!

LOL!!

It might be time for a new AGW Theory

the leftist sheeple blindly follow what ever they are told

it isnt just global warming

pick a topic chances are that will be the case

 

[jon_berzerk]

The IPCC said that climate change is linked to the intensity of hurricanes.

How's that worked out?

Not so good, looks like.

To the INTENSITY.

NOT to the frequency.

Is that difficult to understand?

I see, they're INTENSELY at a record low

well if there was going to be a weather event it may or may not be be a whopper

according to global warming KOOKS

--LOL

 

[percysunshine]

Sadly, Al Gore will not get his wish and have a Hurricane named after him until 2018 when 'Alberto' shows up. Until then we will have to continue to put up with his nonsense about global warming.

Ahh, yes, in violation of the laws of physics, warm water is sinking.

And what laws of physics disprove the existence of ocean currents?

And yet the IIPC have specifically said that climate change is not linked to the frequency of hurricanes.

I posted a thread on this some months back.

As per usual, 90% of the attacks on climate change science are made by people who have no idea at all what scientists are saying.

The IPCC said that climate change is linked to the intensity of hurricanes.

How's that worked out?

Not so good, looks like.

To the INTENSITY.

NOT to the frequency.

Is that difficult to understand?

Not at all. Can you understand that you can't have more intense hurricanes if you don't have any hurricanes at all?

 

[daveman]

Like I said: Warm water is sinking.

No. Warm water is being driven down by altered wind patterns and a reduced amount of cold water is moving down due to disruptions of the Meridional Overturning Current caused by warming and melt water at the poles.

Right. Warm water is sinking, and cold water is floating on top of it.

What's so hard for you to accept, here? This is exactly what you're saying.

I only said "hurricane". I didn't mention a natural disaster -- Hillary.

None of them.

But isn't it funny? When it was revealed we haven't warmed up for YEARS (and man, did they try to keep that hidden! ), they went scrambling around looking for all the heat they KNEW was being trapped in the atmosphere (but wasn't) -- and lo and behold! There it was, hiding at the bottom of the ocean!

We have to pass it to find out what's in it.

Ocean Currents - An Overview of Ocean Currents

Density differences are a function of temperature and salinity. Warm water holds less salt than cold water so it is less dense and rises toward the surface while cold, salt laden water sinks. As the warm water rises though, the cold water is forced to rise through upwelling and fill the void left by the warm. By contrast, when cold water rises, it too leaves a void and the rising warm water is then forced, through downwelling, to descend and fill this empty space, creating thermohaline circulation.
