Mississippi River commerce put on hold, due to lack of river

Lake-water infusion to delay Mississippi closing

December 28, 2012|Reuters


The drought-hit Mississippi River will stay open to commerce a few days longer than expected following the release of water from a lake in southern Illinois, a group of shippers said Friday.
The river, which carries about $7 billion in commodities in December and January, will effectively close near Thebes, Ill., around Jan. 7,...

Droughts have always happened, but the shifting weather patterns generated under climate change conditions tend to exasperate and accentuate both the frequency and intensity of such events.

When is the next Cat 5 Hurricane scheduled to hit NO?

What about the next Hurricane Sandy in the Northeast, when does the model predict the next one?

Drought = AGW

Flood = AGW

Sure, it's not science, but it's never wrong!

Climate models do not make predictions, they merely project average climate states given projected influences and variables. All climate models tell us about hurricanes is that in a warmer world, storms will be more energetic than they are in a cooler world.

Are you absolutely fucking certain?

Climate models do not make predictions, they merely make projections of average climate conditions given the interaction of projected influences and variables.

Projection - a reasoned estimate of future possibilities based on current or past trends and the detailed analysis of those trends.

Prediction - a message that is stated or declared; a communication (oral or written) setting forth particulars or facts etc., prognostication, prophecy.

There is a legitimate use of the term "prediction" in reference to science, but such is fraught with problems due to comman usage conflation of the term as synomous to mystical revelations and divine insight. Climate models do not predict the future. What they do is demonstrate what might result from a given change of climate variables based upon how well we understand the variables and how past changes in those variables have impacted the climate.

s0n........I dont think you have enough propaganda threads going in this forum. Only 9 threads started by Trakkar on this page alone!!! Check it out......you cant make this shit up.


If there is such "consensus" on the science, why is it the most radical of the environmentalists fall all over themselves posting up 10-12 new threads/day!!!

Trakkar s0n..........you have some significant OCD stuff going on. When you make 100 posts/day about global warming, you got issues. Google "Effexor XR" and check it out.......discuss it next time you see your physician. Trust me........you'll enjoy life alot more. Trust me......Im in the field and can see it from 1,000 miles away.

Semantic manipulation. People with a far left ideology are expert at it. What a load of bullshit

.Prediction.........projection.............nobody cares.


The operative term is "computer models"........more semantic bullshit. Next time you see any hurricane coming and are watching the computer models, check out the immense amount of variability for the track of the storm. Its a joke..........but based upon a "computer model".


Who buys this shit? Only the hopelessly duped among us.

I heard about this. We're doing to have to get the hoses out and fill it back up.

Supporting evidence?

I post on an average of 3 days a week, for a few weeks every three or four months, and I don't think I've ever put up a 100 posts a day here, unlike yourself who seems to be on this board for a significant length of time every day. According to site statistics you post 4x the posts I do on a daily basis. Perhaps you should come in out of that "field" you are out standing in and speak to your primary care physician about your issues.

LOL!

Or, instead of oil pipelines, we could just arrange for a whole lot of water pipelines to catch the mountain ice cap melts in the Canadian Rockies and channel it down to the northern tributaries up in Minnesota of the once mighty Mississippi.

A Cat 5 Hurricane has never hit New Orleans.

Drought = AGW

Flood = AGW

Sure, it's not science, but it's never wrong!

The prediction is that both of those events will be more frequent. If they are not then the science is wrong.
