As thermometer gets set to climb, climate experts worry
East Valley Tribune (Tempe) ^ | May 7, 2018 | by Katriona Martin

As temperatures in the East Valley were predicted to hit over 100 the early part of next week, some climate researchers predict Arizona could be unlivable by 2050.

Not all climate forecasts are so dire, but experts say Arizonans need to prepare for extreme heat and related events. The problem is not centuries in the future, they say; it’s immediate.

The state’s average temperature is projected to increase by more than 10 degrees by 2090, according to States at Risk, a project through Climate Central, a nonprofit news organization aimed at showing Americans the impacts of climate change.

This means that heat waves could become more common, which will particularly affect Arizonans unable to shelter from the heat. This includes more than 200,000 people living in poverty, ages 5 and younger or 65 and older, who are especially vulnerable to the heat.

“...experts say...”
*********************
Standard wording from the alarmists in all their attempts to “snow” the public. It’s been going on for DECADES and it has all been lies.

If I was living in AZ, my worry would be more about running out of water.

Does Algore own this operation? When I see the word nonprofit associated with a group in a debate over a contentious issue I’m always suspicious of who is backing them!

I lived in Tucson, AZ from early 1989 to late 1992. We had a summer where heat did not climb above 100 more than 15 to 20 days for the whole year. We had another year where fronts stalled, and the number of days with 100-or-more was closer to seventy days (making it an awful miserable year).

After the first year, you get used to it, and one would readily agree that there is a huge difference between 98-degrees and 108-degrees. You adjust your schedule, avoid afternoon activity, and sip water all day long.

Urban areas are seeing larger temperature increases than rural areas,


Well duh, finally a bit of truth, the problem is not global warming, but cities.

The solution is for all fearful leftists to leave AZ for California or Washington State. Please leave.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

“....climate experts worry”

They’re always worried. They are bed-wetting liberals, that’s what they do.

Yet, in a record, late season storm, over a foot of snow fell in Valdez Alaska. Temps have been running well below ‘normal’ for some time.

See *Ice Age Farmer*, it is an interesting UToob channel

Dear climate experts,
32 years from now is a long period to wait for validation of a prediction. Since you are positioning yourselves as experts, please predict the temperature in Wassau, WI at 2:30 pm on May 17, 2018.
Thank you.
