Gohara Starting Tonight

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

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.
