Default The Reality Of Climate Change - June, July Hottest Months EVER -More Extreme Heat On The Way

The Reality Of Climate Change - June, July Hottest Months EVER In Texas

Here in the heart of Texas it gets hot in the summer. Very hot. 95 or above.
Every day. All summer long. It even tops 100 from time to time. We expect
this. But we've never seen anything like this year.

We hit 100 degrees for the first time on May 20, then again on the 23rd. On
average, our first 100 degree day arrives on or about July 11.

This past June was the Hottest June ever in Austin - and everywhere else in
Texas - since temperatures have been accurately charted, beginning in 1854.

The average daily high temperature for Austin in June was 99.6 degrees.
Normal average high temp is under 90.

Eighteen times in June alone the daily high temperature exceeded 100 degrees
here in Austin. To put that in perspective, we average only eleven 100
degree days for an entire year.

Fifteen days set new all time high marks. That's out of 155 years of
temperature records.

Not only was June 2009 the hottest June ever, it was the 10th hottest month
of any month of any year in the history of Texas.

July made June look like January. The average daily high temperature for
July was *over* 100 degrees - 102 to be exact. The average daily high temp
for Austin in August is 96.

Out of the 31 days of July, we topped the 100 degree mark 26 times.

Not only was July the hottest July ever, it was the hottest month of any
month ever in the history of Texas. The previous record had stood since
1860.

Now, a day or two of hot weather is just that. Weather. A heat wave may even
last a week or more. Sometimes weeks. Still weather. But this isn't a heat
wave. This isn't an anomaly. This is record heat every single day, day in
and day out, all summer long. And it's been happening for years, now.

In entire the history of Texas, only 2 of the 20 hottest years on record
occurred before 1990 - 1860 and 1925. Every year since 1990 has made the
hottest top 20. This isn't weather. This, my friends, is an example of a
change in CLIMATE.


I don't know why anyone would want to live in Texas. If you don't
like 100 degree heat you might want to move north. Meanwhile, I
recommend building some more coal-fired power plants so you have
plenty of electricity for your AC. You don't want to be relying on
those intermittent wind turbines for your juice on those hot windless
days.

Luddite ignorant deniers can whine, bitch and moan all they wish, but the
facts are still the facts. We don't need to rely on computer models
projecting future climate. It is already much warmer, period EOS, move the
**** on, despite the constant braying of the denier asses. And all of this
record heat during a period of record LOW sun energy output, contrary to the
scientifically subliterate boob.babble bull**** lies of the deniers.


And life still goes on. Newsflash: summer is hot as **** in Texas.
Why do we need to spend trillions to solve a non-problem?

These denier fools remind me of the uber silly residents of the mythical
Hy-Brasil in Terry Jones' 'Erik the Viking.' If you haven't seen it, the
king and his faithful subjects all continue to insist that everything is
fine, nothing is wrong and it's only a bit damp, and they continue to sing
out, wildly off pitch but happily - as their entire world sinks into the
sea, drowning them all.


How dramatic and scary. Ooohh!

The simple fact is the ignorant denier simpletons won't accept the observed
reality of climate change, even as the deep waters of reality are closing
over their pointy little heads. The answer is screw 'em. **** the stupid
little gits sideways with a cinder block. There is absolutely no reason to
pay even the slightest attention to anything these babbling simps fart out.
