Well, someone needs to tell the “experts” at The Weather Channel this news. They blame climate change for everything but the short skirts their women wear.
When I was living in New Orleans in the early ‘80s, every hurricane season there was speculation about the killer storm. They couldn’t predict when it would happen, only that it would. 30 years later Katrina came.
To be fair, the number of mass shootings has indeed increased, depending on where you set your starting point. And quite certainly the severity of the mass shootings has gone up.
Overall gun violence (and crime, including violent crime) is down, but that doesn't make the news.
It's like the massive coverage given airplane crashes producing the impression that airplanes are more dangerous than cars, when the opposite is very much the truth.
The media's focus on mass shootings is no doubt partly driven by anti-gun ideology, but it is fairly obviously driven even more by the news value and ratings possiblities of these stories.
Nobody tunes in to see a story about somebody not getting shot in Cleveland.
All weather results from glonal climate change. The climate is in a constant state of flux
You know who you are.

On and on it goes- No, that reporter was not corrected- just hteir statement was
I was searching websites concerning hurricanes once (haven’t been able to find this particular website since, but I know the story is out there somewhere) and read about a hurricane so severe that Spain actually stopped colonizing Florida for a while. It happened, I think, in the 1500’s - totally wiped out a larger settlement, and the Spanish said hmmm, let’s think about this.
Giant storms are not increasing, they’ve always been there. Very few people know that the British were driven out of Wash DC while burning the WH because a violent tornado materialized in front of them - scared the living daylights out of them. Certainly a rare event.
The tornado that saved the US capital in 1812.

“Do we really know how much Gorebull warming contributed to these crime stats?”
“Aren't student test scores effected by Gorebull warming?”
” Childhood obesity has direct ties to Gorebull warming, it's too hot for the kids to run and play.”
” Gorebull warming causes uneven tire wear on cars.” — (Don't offer to give any opinion on why, let the bastards ponder it for the rest of the day.)
“Sandy” ..devastating? yes. Hurricane? not when it reached the US.
