—”worst tornado outbreak since 1974” seems to manage to creep out in every news story-—seems like it may not be Bushes’fault-—
I blame Obama.
Was it ¨climate change” when a similar wave of tornadoes hit the same region in the seventies? What a bunch of crap.
“..the stronger-than-usual tornadoes affecting the southern states were actually predicted from examining the planet’s climatological patterns, specifically those related to the La Nina phenomenon .
“We knew it was going to be a big tornado year,” he said. But the key to that tip-off was unrelated to climate change: “It is related to the natural fluctuations of the planet.”

Tornadoes whipped up by wind, not climate: officials
When He utters His voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, And He causes the clouds to ascend from the end of the earth; He makes lightning for the rain, And brings forth the wind from His storehouses.
Jeremiah 51:16
It’s rather simple really. Heck my nine year old who loves books on tornadoes can even explain it. It’s an El Nino year and the Northern part of the U.S. is much colder than normal, and we all know Tornadoes are caused by cold air bumping up against hot air from the Gulf. The colder that “cold air” part of the equation is, the more tornadoes you are likely to have and with greater intensity.
Speaking of cold air, here in Washington we just had the coldest April on record.
So all this talk about “Climate Change” causing it, is nothing but a sticking pile of crap. Next year they could just as easily have a mild tornado season. Like the mild Hurricane seasons that followed Katrina.
Why is it that anymore, whenever there’s bad weather somewhere, people feel the need to rush and find an ‘explanation’?
IT’S WEATHER, for God’s sake!
There was actually a crazy guy here yesterday posting proof it was a weather machine thread- and he honestly believed it. It was good for lols
Utter foolishness. We have no idea as to "Super Outbreaks" in the past centuries. Weather reporting then would have been reduced to a tribal elder pointing out to young bucks "Me had wigwam here, but Great Spirit sent great wind which blew wigwam away." "Gee, tribal elder, how big was the wind?" "Heap big." "Ugh!"
Our modern Einsteins are about to discover ... Spring.
After Al Gore discovered Summer, this seems like a regressive step.
“Climate change may be one of the many contributing factors, but La Niña was probably a much more significant player in yesterday’s historic outbreak.”
I live in Iowa and we have been 20-25 degrees below normal and if that air slams into normal temps there will be weather events. This has caused much of the major flooding in Iowa the last few years.
After 60+ years on this earth and with the records I have seen that date back thousands of years through earth core sampling, tree rings, etc. the one constant I have seen is change.
To extrapolate: I am not ready to fund Al Gores ponzi scheme to get rich off of carbon credits.
Obama got hold of the Rove Weather Machine and turned it on the red states.
Also, more people and more houses thus more for tornadoes to destroy. Better detection and reporting of tornadoes due to having doppler radar that can track storms, and also create warnings to get folks to shelter. I’ve long held that the “increase” in hurricanes in the 60 years is due to being able to detect and track them when they are in the Atlantic, long before and if they hit land. Thus: Is a hurricane still a hurricane if it is born, lives, and dies totally out to sea with no human ever knowing about it?
Do they have tornedos in other parts of the world like this?
Just wondering.
