After that airplane incident the other day which featured massive turbulence, including a baby being thrown several rows away, who bet on “Warmists will blame this on Hotcoldwetdry”?
Fasten Seat Belts: Climate Change Could Mean More Turbulence
“Could” is one of my favorite scientific words, because it could mean anything and has no measurable testing requirements.
Sudden turbulence injured crew and passengers on two flights an ocean apart this week, and the back-to-back bumpy rides are more than a coincidence — winter weather and changing climate patterns may have played a role. Technology to precisely anticipate the “clear air turbulence” likely to blame for both flights just doesn’t exist, experts say.
The first incident occurred on Monday, when United Airlines flight about to land at Billings, Montana, was rattled by sudden turbulence, which left two passengers and three flight attendants injured. The jolt also tossed a baby from its mother’s arms and into a nearby seat, where it landed unharmed. The second occurred aboard a Cathay Pacific flight out of San Francisco hit a patch of rough air above Japan, and a high-altitude “roller-coaster†ride left eight crew and passengers in hospital.
Oh, but if you thought it was the warmth created warmth from fossil fuels, alas, no
“Winter is when turbulence is the worst,†Williams said. “It’s when the jet stream is strongest … And that’s why we’re seeing the two encounters this week.â€
So it is the warmth created cold from fossil fuels that could make turbulence worse.
Buckle Up, It’s Going to Be a Bumpy FutureThe bad news is that research suggests our travel is likely to get bumpier in the coming decades. Computer models have predicted that climate change and increased carbon dioxide levels will speed up the jet stream, leading to more serious episodes by 2050.
Once Warmists trot out “computer models”, especially when they “suggest”, game over. We’ve just gone into La La Land where science is conducted by unicorns who far out rainbows.
