Oh, how quaint. Yet another computer modelled fantasy, trotted out as some sort of meaningful bit of info.

Talk about duh.

Try posting some real data, not this computer derived fiction.

Except for the 1930's which were significantly warmer, and which your fraudsters continuously try and hide because it exposes their fraud.

 

[ReinyDays]

No rain is expected in the Pacific Northwest until September at the earliest ... more likely October ...
Single digit humidity ...
Pressure bounces between 1009 to 1015 mb ...
Winds from the West ...

If all you have is a 2ºF temperature increase ... then climate hasn't changed ...

Fog and mid-60's predicted for the Coast ... fucks your average temperatures now doesn't it? ...

It's called weather

California Temperatures on the Rise

earthobservatory.nasa.gov

From YOUR Link:

The greatest warming occurred in southern California’s urbanized areas, including Los Angeles and rapidly growing Palm Springs. Urban areas raise average temperatures mostly by preventing an area from cooling off at night. According to one of the study’s authors, NASA climatologist Bill Patzert, “California nights are heating up, giving us a jump start on hotter days.”

bolding mine

Duh!

 

[ReinyDays]

My deepest and most sincere apologies to all those concerned:

STAY HYDRATED

Still not used to my mothering roll here on these boards ...

 

[skookerasbil]

Ummmm.....it's summer.

Nobody cares.

 

[skookerasbil]

Watch the climate bozos disappear when temps are cooler than average up there in a couple of weeks.

Gone.

Lol....SunsetTommy will be around to remind them though

And as usual, I'll be laughing my balls off!

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Was there a CO2 build up over Oregon?

It certain does exist. Sorry you can't find it. Maybe the link was bad. Here is the complete article and the link.

Extreme Weather Events Have Increased Significantly in the Last 20 Years​

There has been a “staggering rise” in the number of extreme weather events over the past 20 years, driven largely by rising global temperatures and other climatic changes, according to a new report from the United Nations. From 2000 to 2019, there were 7,348 major natural disasters around the world, killing 1.23 million people and resulting in $2.97 trillion in global economic losses.
By comparison, the previous 20-year period, 1980-1999, had 4,212 natural disasters, claiming 1.19 million lives and causing $1.63 trillion in economic losses.
Much of this increase, the report notes, can be attributed to climate change. Climate-related disasters jumped 83 percent — from 3,656 events during the 1980-1999 period to 6,681 in the past 20 years. Major floods have more than doubled, the number of severe storms has risen 40 percent, and there have been major increases in droughts, wildfires, and heatwaves.
“We are willfully destructive,” Mami Mizutori, the UN Secretary-General’s Special Representative for Disaster Risk Reduction, said in a statement. “That is the only conclusion one can come to when reviewing disaster events over the last twenty years. Disaster management agencies, civil protection departments, fire brigades, public health authorities, the Red Cross and Red Crescent, and many NGOs are fighting an uphill battle against an ever-rising tide of extreme weather events. More lives are being saved, but more people are being affected by the expanding climate emergency.”
The report, “The Human Cost of Disasters 2000-2019,” found that Asia experienced the highest number of extreme weather events, with 3,068 over the 20-year period. China had the highest number of any single country, suffering from 577 major natural disasters. The United States came in second, with 467 events, followed by India, 321 events, the Philippines, 304, and Indonesia, with 278 disasters.
The authors of the report said the findings show a critical need to invest in disaster prevention and preparedness.
“Disaster risk is becoming systemic with one event overlapping and influencing another in ways that are testing our resilience to the limit,” Mizutori said. “The odds are being stacked against us when we fail to act on science and early warnings to invest in prevention, climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction.”

So this is from the United Nations ... not Yale ... there's a difference ...

The United Nations should publish this in the scientific literature ... I'd like to see their methodology ... "disaster" isn't a scientific word, it's philosophical ...

Wasn't taking about the Yale link, it is the STUDY link from the U,N. I am asking for that supposedly support your numbers I responded to your page one post.

There has been a “staggering rise” in the number of extreme weather events over the past 20 years, driven largely by rising global temperatures and other climatic changes, according to a new report from the United Nations.

The link doesn't work,

"Sorry, page not found!"​

Meanwhile you completely ignored my rebutting post against it.

 

[ReinyDays]

111ºF right now where I live ... that beats the all-time record of 109ºF ... reminds me of the many summers I worked outdoors in the San Joaquin Valley ...

Extreme Weather Events Have Increased Significantly in the Last 20 Years

The study is factually wrong. The only metric they use is insurance costs. Thanks to inflation those have skyrocketed.

Add to that the vast numbers more people living in the USA than were here 100 years ago and voila. There are your insurance costs.

So now ask yourself what the cost would be if a storm like we experienced back in 1862 were to happen.

One storm, it flooded the central valley of California completely. The only part of Sacramento that wasn't underwater was the cemetery.

The flooding extended all the way to Denver. So, one storm would have done more damage, than all the storms of the 20th century.

That's the problem with these studies. They ignore historical fact because it interferes with their pre ordained conclusions.

 

[ReinyDays]

If we didn't have any global warming at all ... we would have still broken old records yesterday in the Pacific Northwest ... officially 114ºF here ...

What everyone misses is the very high overnight temperatures ... still goddam 81ºF outside and 88ºF inside ... normal for Summer here is mid to upper 50's ... we'll see ... yes, up at 4am running fans in the windows ... may just put warm clothes on and spend the day at the coast ...

 

[skookerasbil]

It's summertime in the USA.

High temperatures only daunting to the climate OCD's....nobody else

 

[Sunsettommy]

It was 115 F yesterday, today 115 F expected, tomorrow 117 F predicted then a slow decline from then on.

 

[ReinyDays]

It was 115 F yesterday, today 115 F expected, tomorrow 117 F predicted then a slow decline from then on.

63ºF outside this morning ... that breaks the heat spell for us ... highs in the low 90's the rest of the week ...

Some quick "back-of-the-$100-bill" mathing gives me 0.03ºF increase in the 100 year average ... woot ... time to get hysterical ...
