I'm glad most of our folks made it out okay. I just hope families can find shelter from the cold.

The Mayor of New York is now jumping on the environmental/climate change bandwagon, along with a lot of others.

I would really like to give them a history lesson from a time long before power stations and tail pipes!
Yeah, we were hearing the same thing when we got whacked by Hurricane Juan, in 2003. :rolleyes: Regardless of the existence/non-existence of climate change, to rant about it after any particular storm is silly. One event indicates nothing, except that you just had a storm.

But isn't that the rub? Haven't we seen an increase in frequency of severe storms?
The last professional research study I read showed a decrease in typical cyclone activity, but an increase in Category 4&5 hurricanes. I think that was 2005 and the study went back 35 years. I don't know how the subsequent 7 years have compared.

Oh, I'm not arguing against climate change. I'm just saying that one storm will tell us nothing about it. You need empirical data collected over decades/centuries to give you the real picture.

That's it.
When you peel back the money making political agendas.
Man Made global warming is a better money maker than the $5,000 power cord scam.:rolleyes::D
Otherwise the planets in the galaxy are gonna do what they do.:)

Without writing a long diatribe, it's worse than a money making scheme; it comes down to power and control. There may come a day when you simply aren't allowed to eat a cheeseburger, the same way you can't just go to the corner gas station and buy leaded gasoline.

That's the whole point of my drawing attention to this.

If you look at that data, there were three massive storms in less then a century, two of which rerouted rivers in a night.

The River Rother changed counties! Even more significant we are talking about the English Channel and the Strait of Dover, not like the East Coast of the US, open to thousands of miles of Ocean.

These storms had to be at least the equal of Sandy and likely worse.

Imagine what the climate change boys would make of it if it happened now.

Now whether not CO2 is having an effect needs to be determined. A climate worsening with any rising occurrence will correlate with anything else on the rise in the same time period. It in no way proves cause and effect.

The we have the anti cow farters. These people are really daft. You have bogs and wetlands constantly producing liters of methane, Just round my property with wetlands in these woods are constantly producing enormous amounts. It is in notions like this, these people loose all credibility with me.
