When I tell people there's
more volatility, more instability in the climate system they look at me
like I just ate a bug. Say what? More crazy swings, and as winters trend
warmer it's harder to keep snow on the ground. That's not a theory -
that's looking out the window.
A coating for deer hunting,
ice on our lakes after Thanksgiving, snow on the ground for Christmas?
It's not a given anymore. And yes, it bums me out too.
end quote from:
What weather volatility actually means is literally anything can happen now any time of year.
Can there be fires anywhere in December and January?
Yes.
Can there be snow, ice or even a short ice age in summer?
Yes. Not likely but yes.
Can there be hurricanes and tornadoes in December and January?
Yes.
Can there be flooding or droughts any time of the year?
Yes.
This is what weather volatility actauly means in real time.
Here is the real point:
If the north pole can melt out in December there is nothing weather wise that can't happen any time of year anywhere after that.
What does this mean in real time?
It means a whole lot of people are going to be surprised by weather any time of year and might die or be seriously injured by it world wide from now on. And the swings of weather are going to just get more extreme and unpredictable too.
