If I’m to believe Ryan Hall, Hurricane Milton, now a Category 5 hurricane forecast to impact the Tampa Bay, FL area on Wednesday, went from a disorganized mess in the Gulf of Mexico to a tightly organized, laser-like monster of a storm in just a couple of days, not forecast until then, when most hurricanes can be foreseen a couple of weeks out.
This is following Hurricane Helene, which devastated the Carolinas and provoked Erick Erickson into a barking madness. That was just last week.
This following days, months, and years of heat records for the entire world, during which Australia burned and heat waves affected most of the planet, and polar ice noticeably thinned and decreased.
Can this be considered convincing evidence that climate change is real, is human-originated, will not be resolved by any Divinity, and the cost of doing so just keeps going up the more we screw around arguing the matter?
Or is this how humanity exits stage left, screaming, pointing fingers, and inelegantly proclaiming innocence, as if there’ll be something to receive such self-important proclamations?
