Climate change anyone? I know, no politics, but the weather this year is bizarre. Send some of that rain to us poor Oregonians!

Well, sorry for the false hope. Looked promising earlier and then more storms started firing.
Riiiight....Definitely nothing out of the ordinary going on...
"The size of the storm left hurricane and weather scientists speechless. “I am at a complete and utter loss for words looking at Irma's appearance on satellite imagery,” wrote Taylor Trogdon, a scientist at the U.S. National Hurricane Center on Twitter.
Irma strengthened to a Category 5 hurricane Tuesday with winds up to 185 mph. The storm is most powerful ever recorded in the Atlantic Ocean. It’s so strong it is even showing up on scales for measuring earthquakes."
Oh, I've read plenty on it, I know it is a historic storm. If every hurricane we were getting seemed to be around the top of the charts, that would be one thing. But that's not what is happening.
Pointing to one historic storm is a weak argument. Only slightly stronger than the old, 'This is the strongest storm since ___? Man, things are only getting bigger and badder' argument.
Climate change is real. The fact that extremely strong hurricanes exist is not evidence of it.
I heard that hurricane Gohard is going to be blowing some folks away today. maybe he will be historic too.

Check out the 40s thru 50s... 24 hurricanes (10 major)
Back to back 97 fastballs. He may be as advertised.
96 fastball with some good downer movement
Sitting at 97 according to the TV gun.
Probably pumped for this first time inning and will settle in at 94-95.
Dam good slide piece there
Slider at 87. Looked like average or better movement. More of a sweeper.

Elvis Andrus. Dam big fly there
Andrus just ambushed a fastball.
