It’s been a while since I checked in on Mauna Loa:
And not obviously better. What triggered me to think of this? This CNN/Weather report:
The flood threat for Florida will only diminish slightly Tuesday and remain quite concerning.
“Due to the likely hard hit nature of this area by Tuesday, even smaller amounts of rain are likely to result in outsized impacts,” the WPC [Weather Prediction Center] warned.
Flood threats could become even more dire for parts of Georgia and South Carolina on Wednesday once the area becomes very water-logged.
“By this point, the multi-day storm accumulation will likely be in the double digits with maxes in the 20 to 30 inch range near the Savannah metro and all along the Carolina Coastal Plain,” the WPC continued.
This is not an isolated event, either. Following three years of drought, northern Minnesota saw heavy flooding earlier this summer, which caused the Blue Earth River to effectively go around the Rapidan Dam. We have wildfires in California and Canada, a heat wave of memorable proportions on the East Coast, and we can certainly point at anthropomorphic climate change. Hurricane Beryl with more to come…
And a stubborn CO2 density curve.
