Horse with no Name (30,595 posts) Ya think? I live very near the areas that are being pummeled by tornadoes tonight. I have spent more time in a bathtub with clothes on than I care to admit. This afternoon I was in a farm store and this older lady and I were in the bathroom washing our hands. Invariably the weather came up...OKC was the topic. She said " Well...everybody said he was wrong but I am starting to think that Al Gore mighta been right"... Ya think?

"Will climate change influence tornado occurrence?" The best answer is: We don't know. According to the National Science and Technology Council's Scientific Assessment on Climate Change, "Trends in other extreme weather events that occur at small spatial scales--such as tornadoes, hail, lightning, and dust storms--cannot be determined at the present time due to insufficient evidence." This is because tornadoes are short-fused weather, on the time scale of seconds and minutes, and a space scale of fractions of a mile across. In contrast, climate trends take many years, decades, or millennia, spanning vast areas of the globe. The numerous unknowns dwell in the vast gap between those time and space scales. Climate models cannot resolve tornadoes or individual thunderstorms. They can indicate broad-scale shifts in three of the four favorable ingredients for severe thunderstorms (moisture, instability and wind shear), but as any severe weather forecaster can attest, having some favorable factors in place doesn't guarantee tornadoes. Our physical understanding indicates mixed signals--some ingredients may increase (instability), while others may decrease (shear), in a warmer world. The other key ingredient (storm-scale lift), and to varying extents moisture, instability and shear, depend mostly on day-to-day patterns, and often, even minute-to-minute local weather. "

As we were walking out the door I did saythat the rest of the world knew he wasn't wrong....but she didn't reply. Thinking.."Oh Lord, not another of those.Our area is going to be hit with this storm in the next couple of hours. Going to be a long night. Do us a favor, hold your breath.
Me too, I don't know why, but the few OPs I read of hers (who knew???) she came off as masculine to me.I don't know, maybe it's because the actual male DUmmies are so non-masculine.
Is this one of those thingies where someone states something that happened but in reality it did not happen?So this person suggests that a tornado in Oklahoma; which according to the NOAA averages 47 a year, is evidence of Global Warming?Someone must have grabbed the stupid shaker instead of the salt.
Ted Kennedy is the only person with an actual confirmed kill in the war on women.
She would pass as masculine in the DUmp. Hard to tell them apart, sometimes.
No, she's some sort of nurse in Northeast Texas.
It is a worthwhile and super fun read about where terms like "bouncy" come from: http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,37163.0.htmlBut you are essentially correct -- not only is it invented but it requires "conservatives" seeing the light and changing their views (in a supermarket line or somesuch) AND/OR a dressing down by the OP of a conservative with everyone in the area applauding (or universally silently snickering).
"The nation that couldn’t be conquered by foreign enemies has been conquered by its elected officials" odawg Free Republic in reference to the GOP Elites who are no difference than the Democrats
Right on cue the global warming nutjobs are screeching, "see, see, we are right". These idiots act as if there has never been weather until the invention of the SUV, and up to that point mother earf was stable and at a constant temperature.

<<<hopes Ms. Ed does; I'd hate to see her any other way in a bathtub.
Tornado activity has actually been low the past few years.
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
Before the past few days, I had heard that a tornado had not touched down here in Iowa in 300 some days. Which was some sort of record.
