I suppose that the weather stations are going to have to continue to replay last years catastrophes on an endless loop!
That is exactly what is happening whenever I view any given weather-related 24-hr / 365 channel: meteorologists that probably got their degrees off the back of a cereal box and oh sooo deeply mired in the bog of indoctrination, misinformation and outright hoax, gesticulating wildly toward either a computerized weather map of the U.S. or after a presentation of hurricanes that impacted YEARS ago, and fairly shouting “the end is near!!!”
“We’re not out of the woods yet, people—September is the MOST ACTIVE part of the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season!”
***meanwhile, off the coast of Northern Africa and into the Atlantic ALL THE WAY into the Gulf of Mexico, Saharan Desert dust wafts continuously into the picture like a raindrop snuffing out a candle…***
***fizzle…***
These people have absolutely nothing to talk about unless it’s some sort of disaster ongoing (like the torrential rains and flooding that has hit this year (Houston area for one), or trying to send folks into a fullblown panic over absolutely NOTHING going on, “but there’s always the chance of a major hurricane developing before the season officially ends”.
I’ve heard that the seas are actually cooling off rather quickly, early and unexpectedly. Oh dear that might put a damper on things (no pun intended).
Don’t even get me started on the storm chasing goofballs. Out there risking their lives to warn us of a tornado they just punched the core of and nearly got swept up into and killed. Really need to prove the power and danger of the storm brother.
On an April evening at exactly 7:00 pm, I didn’t need to see the tornado that struck my little town. It turned pitch black outside toward the west-southwest from our kitchen window and we ran to shelter in the hallway. Our warning was from my phone weather app (that I’d been using to keep an eye on a ferocious isolated cell tracking straight for us out of the south), and began to loudly blare the EBS tone, and my sister calling from 35 miles away to make sure I and my parents were in shelter and aware.
The sirens sounded AFTER the tornado had already ripped through. And tore up a nursing home. Thank God, no one died and all were transported to other local facilities.
