El Niño makes tropical cyclone activity in the Pacific very high while making the Atlantic very quiet. I'm a few days out from experiencing my third tropical cyclone this season.
I think you are possibly the only person in the comments who actually knows what they are talking about. Thank you for that. I've experienced those super active years too, there have been others but 2004 and 2005 were the worst for me personally. Back to back storms are always extraordinarily fatiguing, and devastating when you have bad damage, but you will get through it.
Yeah, I live in Florida, and nobody is shocked about it being quiet. Everyone knows it's El Nino, even the dumb hicks who gobble up fox news and don't believe in climate change probably know a fair amount about El Nino.
Through my decision ALONE, I have decided to change the name of the WEATHER ITSELF, from this day forward TROPICAL STORMS are to be called AMERICAN names. No more of this 'el' and 'la'. That's called INDOCTRONATION! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION ON THIS MATTER. Your favorite president: me! DJT 47 - ?

Common for people living in hurricane prone areas, less so for people who are rarely affected by them. I didn’t really know this fact off the top of my head, and I actively try to learn about various science topics.
But I definitely believe it, and it makes some intuitive sense once you think about it out it (more energy in one ocean means less energy in another part).
El Niño usually brings snow to the southeast and rain to the southwest. Every few years it would come through and we would get 2-3 inches of snow in Alabama around December.
Will confirm that they do in fact know what it is and how it fucks them over.here’s a direct quote from them and literally every person along the gulf - ‘ it’s about time we catch a fuckin break ‘
I grew up in Florida and now live in Cali, the 97/98 El Niño on the California Central Coast was just as destructive as some Florida hurricanes I’d been through. Currently doing a lot for prep work for fall and winter. I hope not but I fear this will be worse.
I always find it strange to hear about people who, "don't believe," in global warming. Scientists aren't talking about the tooth fairy, Santa Claus or asking layman for their scientific opinion.
Idk, I have some hickish relatives that live in Florida that are convinced it’s because trump is president so the democrats can’t use their “weather machine” to make storms. They are being serious.
The problem with climate change isn't that people dont see differences with a given climate, its more with how its collected, presented, and the insane measures some want to take. The claims themselves are not scientifically proven. The first problem, Earth's climate has many cycles proven by various findings, so there's no proof we aren't just going through a cycle that we have no record to compare to, or really any way of knowing one started. Next, the sun has been acting outside all the expected norms and already they believe our solor maximum clock has been historically wrong. Next, Earth's axis is shifting, faster in the past decade, so climate is going to shift in relation to the external forces that don't shift with us. Next, you have governments like the US, UK, EU where we only contribute about 20%, or less, of the whole problem. To move this number down, it costs trillions of dollars that nobody has to spend, pretty much up front, to get started and there's no guarantee that we'd be able to measure any result or affect any change. This is also in part because scientists can't even agree on the causes, the solutions, or if we even have the technology or understanding to solve it. If it's due to a cycle, we cannot change it. To top it all off, the countries that are the worst offenders mostly aren't interested, so shaving off a couple percent for many of trillions of dollars that nobody has to spend, isn't likely going to make any difference other than decades of higher taxes to pay for it. I should just say permanent taxes, because they never go down.
Everyone who has talked to another person in the last three months has heard the name 'El Nino' about forty six times so I don't know if they're the only one who knows what they're talking about lmao
Maybe there have been more informed posts since but, at the time I wrote that, and excluding the obvious jokes, all I saw were people taking it as proof that climate change does or does not exist, or predicting DOOM, or inexplicably bringing politics into it when the explanation is really very simple and well understood without even bringing up any genesis particulars like mjo, ohc, wind shear, etc.
As a verified grumpy old goat in hurricane alley, it irritated me.
We were told that 2006 would be a history making hurricane season. 30+ hurricanes most likely. It would make 2006 look average. 5 hurricanes. Least active season in 9 years.
I lived in KW, Fl, for 05- on the hook. Unbelievable devastation. I moved to land after the first- to a house 1 Key West block from the bight- flooding for both Katrina, & Rita- then a serious wind event with Whilma. Unreal. Still lived there for 20+ years . Seen a bunch.
Uhm, clearly not, because if they're the only one who knows what they're talking about then that means you don't know what you're talking about. And you clearly don't. Wait, but if you don't know what you're talking about maybe you do know what you're talking about... wait...
Yup because the Pacific is catching hell with hurricanes right now. Basically every other week. Been insane and never like this before. One bad one ever few years or more during hurricane season but nothing like this
It’s quiet in the Atlantic because we’re getting all of it
