Did Climate Central think this through before publishing, or, are they under the (rightful) impression that the Warmists who read the screed are brainwashed morons?
Climate change fuels extreme heat, flooding and tropical threats across the U.S
Much of the United States will experience some form of climate-fueled extreme weather this week, from dangerous heat across the Central and Eastern U.S. to heavy rain and flooding threats in Texas, the Grand Canyon, and Southern California. Unusually warm ocean waters are also amplifying tropical systems and the risk of extreme rainfall, underscoring the widespread influence of human-caused climate change. (snip)
Tropical Depression Five formed over the northern Gulf of Mexico around 1 p.m. CDT Monday, August 31, and strengthened into Tropical Storm Edouard by evening. The National Weather Service is forecasting 3 to 5 inches of rain, with isolated amounts of 6 to 9 inches possible over parts of southeast and eastern Texas. Rainfall rates exceeding 3 to 4 inches per hour at times could lead to flash flooding in urban and other vulnerable areas.
A tropical depression or tropical storm could form by September 1, several hundred miles south-southwest of southwestern Mexico, potentially strengthening to a strong tropical storm or hurricane as it moves north toward Southern California through the week. Regardless of whether it makes landfall as a defined tropical system, the storm will likely bring heavy rain and extreme humidity to Southern California that would last into the following week, potentially causing flooding.
This piece was originally published August 31, but, must have been updated in some manner so that Google News picked it up as being published today. Anyhow, tropical storms happen, hurricanes happen. Oh, wait
Of course, the Warmists will Blame ‘climate change’ for the lack of tropical systems, like they’ve done before.
