On Long Island. Hot. Moderately low rain. But not worse ( or as bad) than many summers I lived through since I joined the planet in ‘49.
Yes.
I just finished reading a great book by someone who I thought was a Lefty because he was hired into the Obama Administration as a science adviser.
But when I heard him being interviewed, he did not sound like a Lefty at all.
He sounded like a scientist.
A real scientist, to whom the concept of actual science (as formerly embraced by the scientific community) has real meaning and responsibility.
And he was angry at what he sees as “science” today, particularly with respect to Global Warming.
I wanted to read his book to see what this Obama Era official had to say, and he described the difference between “Climate” and “Weather” in this elegant way:
He wrote: “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.”
Brilliant. Just brilliant.
Anyway, you obviously understand that distinction, hence your ability to observe this weather in the appropriate context.
There are so many who don’t.
