not arguing either way, but if GW is true, you would expect a large
influx of rain ( as the sock puppet master has pointed out) into the
drainage area.

you could make just as substantial an argument that GW would cause
great lake flooding.


you haven't made your case.


You are arguing. You expect a large influx of rain. You said so.

You haven't made a case for your point.

On what basis, GW or no GW, would you be expecting a large influx of
rain to the Great Lakes drainage basin?


if more moisture is lofted by a warming environment...

What you have been told repeatedly by your betters, who know things that
you don't bother your pretty little head to know about, is all
continental interiors will dehydrate as a general rule,



note the word "general"



ALL CONTINENTIAL INTERIORS ARE DEHYDRATING:

Drought could be worst ever, Costello warns
NEWS.com.au, Australia - Oct 12, 2006
THE farm economy was in crisis because of an ongoing drought that was
shaping up to be the worst ever, Treasurer Peter Costello said today. ...



the great lakes are different in the fact that they drain a huge area
and are also at the confluence of several ocean influences (gulf
atlantic, arctic ) that you don't see in the russian steppes, for
instance



What an uneducated fantasyland you live in. You think that the closest
ocean necessarily is the source of the usual rain. How about if I told you
that the INDIAN OCEAN is the primary source of Western interior US summer
rains, and the reason there was a drought this summer was because the
rainclouds from the Indian Ocean were pushed north into the Arctic by the
severe storm season in Asian Pacific?

e=2 Expert: U.S. West becoming warmer faster
2006/10
DURANGO, Colo. - The American West is becoming warmer faster on average
than the rest of the world, a climate researcher says.

The West is 2 to 3 degrees warmer than its average annual temperature,
calculated using more than 100 years of records, according to the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Many studies peg the rise in the
earth‘s average temperature since 1880 at 1 degree, making it the warmest
it has been in the last 400 years.

"Things are cooking in the West, and they‘ll continue to cook even more,"
Overpeck said.

The Indian Ocean drives many of the weather patterns that make their way
to the American West, University of Colorado climate scientist Klaus
Wolter said.

West is warming epicenter
Experts say region outpaces rest of globe in temperature rise
By Electa Draper
Denver Post Staff Writer
Article Last Updated:10/12/2006 10:09:51 PM MDT

Durango - The globe is warming, but the American West is really cooking -
hotter and faster on average than the rest of the U.S. and the world, a
leading climate researcher said at a conference here Thursday.

"The West is warming dramatically," said Jonathan Overpeck, director of
the Institute for the Study of Planet Earth at the University of Arizona.
"Things are just going to get hotter. You can bet the farm on it."

It's not just the farm and shorter irrigation seasons at stake. It
probably means shorter skiing and rafting seasons but longer droughts,
worse floods, sweatier summers and more dead trees.

The West is already 2 to 3 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than its average
annual temperature, calculated using more than 100 years of records,
according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Most
scientific studies peg the rise in the Earth's average temperature since
1880 at 1 degree Fahrenheit, making it the warmest it has been in the past
400 years. ...

.... "But temperature alone can drive a major drying-out of the West,"
Overpeck said.

With the earlier and faster snowmelt, stream flows are lower in late
spring and summer. Evaporation of reservoirs is greater.

Vegetation suffers, Overpeck said, as witnessed on millions of Western
acres where drought-stricken, bug-infested pińons and other trees have
died since 2000.

Climate systems are complex and incompletely understood, but NOAA
meteorologist Marty Hoerling has found that an especially warm Indian
Ocean region appears to be causing the West's unusual warming.



This is easily confirmed by consultating the satellite pictures archives:
http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/rsad/gibbs/2006/2006.html


with occasional monumental
flood events from super storms intermittently which will in no way
offset the trend towards burning out the cores of continents. The
coastal areas will take the brunt of the regime of mamouth rainfall
events because that's where the triggers are that pull the plug to drain
the rainclouds.



riiiight...



I hope those oozing syphallis sore of yours get better soon. It's really
disgusting to look at your face with little volcanos erupting every few
minutes. For decency sake, how about wearing a mask in public?




I know there's a lot of nasty science stuff you wish you had time for
but all those hours on your knees everyday in the local park men's
restroom hardly gives you much free time for all that mumbo jumbo.



forget the facts. you're a true believer. unimpressive.

GLOBAL means GLOBAL. Global Warming Action moves around but it doesn't
move to outer-space. If it's not in your backyard, it's in somebody else's
