So, Texas has had nearly 50 straight days of 100+ weather.

It's called Summer, you know the hot season

he's got his sky is falling glasses on.

 

[Concerned American]

I have family that has lived in Olympia Washington for 50 years... they say this heat wave is rare but nothing new.... ten days ago it was wet and 67 degrees....
The weather changes stop freaking out over it....

Yup, I've been listening to the weather guys in Spokane and they have been panicking over four days of 100+ weather (highest 104). Right now 10:30 a.m. 8/1/22, the temp is 68 degrees. Last nights 11 o'clock news was warning of more dangerous heat today--supposed to be 92. LOL. WEATHER HAPPENS.

 

[Concerned American]

Arsonist Liberals no doubt starting it like many out here on the West Coast. When it's not them it's the State run electric company PGE letting equipment malfunction or not be upgraded

Speaking of PG&E. Did they have anything to do with the McKinney fire or the fires in Yosemite area? I haven't heard causes for either.

What the fuck are you talking about?

San Bruno pipeline explosion - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

"On January 21, 2017, PG&E was fined $3 million and ordered to perform 10,000 hours of community service for criminal actions of violating the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act and for obstruction of justice. In addition, it must institute a compliance and ethics monitoring program and spend up to $3 million to "publicize its criminal conduct". These actions were imposed after the company was found guilty by a federal jury in August 2016 of six of the twelve charges against the company in US District Court.[69]"

You should stop saying things about California utilities until you learn what's going on there ...

Do you have any Texas weather station reporting 50 consecutive days of 100ºF temperatures or above? ... c'mon now, don't be shy ...

Texas is hot summer weather country. Some years it gets beastly hot and other years not so bad, but that is nothing new. This area, which includes states further west like New Mexico and Arizona have always been hot and dry in the summer for thousands of years, at least since humans began occupying the area and has nothing at all to do with climate change. And certainly nothing to do with human activity.

Here is San Antonio? You bet your ass, maybe not consecutive but damn close.

San Antonio hit 50 days of 100 degree weather in July

Triple digit heat continues for the rest of the week.

My local radio station gives weather for the region ... triple digit everywhere except Eureka, CA ... low 60's for highs and upper 50's for lows ...

Normal as normal can be ... it might be another five years until we see everyplace in the triple digits ... but I don't want to hear it until Eureka is triple digit ...

50 straight days over a hundred?

Is that common?

It certainly is where I live in NorCal. Sunny 95% of the year and over 100 all summer long and parts of spring

Yosemite fire likely caused by humans

Yosemite wildfire likely caused by humans, authorities say

The blaze currently covers an area of over 3,500 acres, and is 22 percent contained by firefighters

So far officials are still unsure about McKinney

Is This a Typical Texas Heat Wave or the Coldest Summer of the Rest of Our Lives?

Across the state, Texans are experiencing record-high temperatures, but we might be recalling this summer fondly someday.

Arson should be subject to the death penalty. These are some sick people. Like rabid dogs, they should be put down.

I agree, but they end up pleading mental and get reduced sentences. Just further proves Liberalism is truly a mental disorder

Another newsflash: 100 degree temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, to go along with the worst drought in a 1000 years.

But you don't understand climate change.

Weather isn't climate.

All of this is consistent with the effects of human-caused warming. We’ve experienced tremendous summertime warming in Texas in recent decades. This summer is running about 6 degrees higher than the twentieth-century average, according to John Nielsen-Gammon, the state climatologist and a professor of atmospheric sciences at Texas A&M. He estimates that roughly one quarter of that abnormal heat is attributable to climate change. “Climate change is making droughts worse by increasing the temperatures and thereby increasing how rapidly everything dries out,” Nielsen-Gammon said.
