When I was a kid, my Grandmother hauled my ass over to a
high school in a neighboring community to some event, likely
to have been in support of my aunt.
We walked out of the event, and there was a downpour I
remember to this day, over 65 years later.
I hadn’t realized it was caused by global warming, but I
want it to be known I was a forerunner in the observation
of these events. /s
Only 400 feet? Count yourself lucky! I live in the Purcell Trench. The Purcell Lobe of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet occupied northern Idaho and the northwestern edge of Montana. The Purcell Lobe was notable because it blocked off the Clark Fork River, creating a massive ice dam over 2,000 feet tall. The dam caused water to back up in western Montana, forming Lake Missoula, a glacial lake covering about 3,000 square miles.
How strong was an 2,000 foot ice dam when the earth warmed and the last glacial period ended? About as strong as you would expect. The geologists think the Cordilleran Ice Sheet melted away in less than 4,000 years.
Now THAT was some serious climate change! And it was only happened about 300 human generations ago.
What a pant load.
Global Warming is a perfect scientific theory. All measurements of everything confirm it.
