Here in the Pacific NorthWest we have ample evidence for the floods, up to 120, that created the WA state scablands and deepened the Columbia River. All of the western Montana valleys were full of meltwater, held back by an icedam near Thompson Falls. Periodically it would break, sending cubic miles of floodwater racing to the pacific. Spokane falls is a result of that deluge/gouging action.
Mt Saint Helens happened in 1980, there is ample proof of a 300 foot high wave that hit the Olympic peninsula/Pac NW coast hundreds of years ago, caused by the Cascadia fault. Point : natural forces operate on their own timescale, chicken little algore and his fearmongering has nothing to do with causing it, it’s Mother Nature doing her thing.
I couldn't agree more.
We experience the El Nino phenomena every few years, and scientists still haven't determined its cause. My own theory is that it is caused by a "hot spot" of magma below the crust in the Pacific Ocean. Some tremendous heat source is required to raise the temperature of the ocean by 3-5 degrees.
