Lukewarm wildfire season throws damper on climate-change predictions - Washington Times

For the past 2-3 years, all you heard around here were comments from the AGW turthers about how wildfires are raging out of control due to climate change!!!


Oooooooooops


Yet another stoopid prediction from these knuckleheads that has fallen flat on its face!!!


Now they'll link it to some bocus excuse............."but the El Nino"..........or.........."pacific winds have changed".


BS.........just like the drought that comes and goes ( proveable ) via natural cycles, so do wildfires.

Normally when your hypothesis is disproved, you try a new one or conclude you were wrong. At least that is what scientists are suppose to do.

Not the AGW climate crusaders.

With all their stuff, they are always seizing on the moment ALWAYS in the present and hope that people dont pay attention a year or more down the road. Thats the gay MO of these bozo's..............although a pretty clever one I might add. Sneaky as all hell though..........

Any environmental anamoly is thrown into the "Uh...oh....climate change is rearing its ugly head again!!". But for those paying attention, its just more ruse stuff. Whenever you look at this prediction stuff from the AGW k00ks, if you look back or forward, shit all falls apart like a house of cards.

I rather enjoy their appeals to science. Nothing is less basic to science than methodology.

Utter devastation in wake of Erskine Fire...

Two dead, homes burned by massive California wildfire
Sat Jun 25, 2016 - Hundreds of firefighters were struggling on Saturday to contain a massive wildfire that has killed two people and burned at least 100 homes while ravaging lakeside communities in central California.

The so-called Erskine Fire, which broke out on Thursday afternoon in the foothills of Kern County about 42 miles (68 km) northeast of Bakersfield, has exploded to char more than 30,000 acres, making it one of the worst in an already intense fire season in drought-stricken California. The National Weather Service issued a "red-flag warning" for the area at least into Saturday morning, forecasting high temperatures, low humidity and gusty winds that could whip up the blaze's intensity as it cuts through the bone-dry brush and grass.

Three firefighters have suffered injuries related to smoke inhalation while battling the inferno and hundreds of residents were forced to flee their homes. California Governor Jerry Brown on Friday declared a state of emergency for the county. Officials said the 800 firefighters battling the blaze have been able to draw containment lines around five percent of the flames, and hundreds more personnel were en route to the area. Some 1,500 homes remain threatened, according to fire information website InciWeb.

To the south, firefighters were gaining control over a pair of fires dubbed the San Gabriel Complex burning through foothills and canyons in Los Angeles County. InciWeb said 30 percent of the 5,260 acre fire had been contained as of Friday evening. Authorities allowed to return home more of hundreds of residents who were evacuated from the area after the fire sparked on Monday morning. Evacuation orders for other communities threatened by the flames remained in effect.

If we had spent a dime for every dollar the taxpayer wasted studying Algore's FRAUD on desalination, those California wildfires would not be happening...

Good God! This has to be one of the dumbest posts of the day!



By Valerie Richardson - The Washington Times - Sunday, September 7, 2014
DENVER — This year’s below-average wildfire season comes as welcome news for Westerners, but it’s also burning a hole in the environmentalist narrative on climate change.

Although summer isn’t over, and fires are burning in California and Oregon, it has been a mild year in terms of the number of wildfires and acres burned, according to the National Interagency Fire Center.

The agency reports that 2.77 million acres have burned this year as of Sept. 5, a decline from the 3.9 million acres that had burned by the same date in 2013 and less than half the 10-year average of 6.2 million acres. The number of fires, 38,451, is also down considerably from the 10-year average of 56,278.

That was two years ago. Last year we have one of the worst fire seasons ever.

Feds: Drought Kills 66 Million Trees in California's Sierra

The number of trees in California's Sierra Nevada forests killed by drought, a bark beetle epidemic and warmer temperatures has dramatically increased since last year, raising fears they will fuel catastrophic wildfires and endanger people's lives, officials said Wednesday.

Since 2010, an estimated 66 million trees have died in a six-county region of the central and southern Sierra hardest hit by the epidemic, the U.S. Forest Service said.

Officials flying over the region captured images of dead patches that have turned a rust-colored red. The mortality from Tuolumne to Kern counties has increased by 65 percent since the last count announced in October, which found 40 million dead trees.

California is in the fifth year of a historic drought, which officials say has deprived trees of water, making them more vulnerable to attack from beetles.

Gov. Jerry Brown in October declared an emergency, forming a task force charged with finding ways to remove the trees that threaten motorists and mountain communities.

Of course our resident lazy assholes who have never worked a fire line, or even hike a few miles into any western forest all know more more than the foresters that have spent their lives studying the subject. What a bunch of brainless jerks.

June 24, 2016

Normal large fire activity continues throughout the country. Twenty large fires have burned a total fo 1,975,558 acres which is higher than the 10-year average. Arizona and California remain the most active. Three new large fires were reported: one each in Arizona, California and Florida.

Weather: A wet low pressure system will move east across the Pacific Northwest and Northern Rockies, bringing widespread precipitation to Washington, northern Idaho, and western Montana. This should provide a needed boost to fuel moisture levels. Windy conditions will develop along the southern fringes of this system impacting southern portions of the Pacific Northwest, Northern Rockies, and Wyoming. Ahead of the system, strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across the Northern Plains along the Canadian Border. In the Southwest, slight "cooling" is expected as the ridge of high pressure further weakens. Isolated storms will be possible across eastern Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming. East of the Mississippi River, a redeveloping cold front will create a slight chance for severe thunderstorms across the eastern portion of the Central Plains and Tennessee River Valley. In Alaska expect more of the same. High pressure will move from eastern Alaska into the Yukon Territory, producing a dry day for the Interior while a strong, wet system will move east from the Bering Sea into southwest Alaska, bringing widespread wetting rainfall.

Looks like we are in for another long hot fire summer.

Yep......like every year for the last billion years. Sometimes a bit more.........sometimes a bit less.......as I have displayed very clearly............

And people wonder why the alarmist crowd is losing so badly? Its because, they think the rest of the world are all dumb......like any good progressive. They believe it is their duty in life to educate all the stoopids.......but anybody with half a brail looks at the above graph and realizes that drought has been going on for billions of years...........some years you have lots of fires.............some years less. But the climate alarmists are always making out that we are seeing these fires as some new phenomenon related to global warming!! They want you to think that.........they need you to think that!! The premise is fraudulent.

That doesn't change the fact that the title of this thread is a total lie. Nor the fact that the link posted to prove the title was 2 years out of date.

Using distraction in debate.......progressives have no peer in this area. They do the bird landing on a chessboard, knocking over the pieces and shitting on the board stunt ALL THE FUCKING TIME!!

Its so intellectually dishonest............so much so........fuck with the semantics and the language. Ghey.........that's what progressives do ( Clinton: "it depends what the meaning of the word "is" is? ). Progressives have made an art form out of fucking with the language.

"link 2 years out of date".........we get this crap all the time in here!!

My post above ( #12 ) destroys all this drought argument..........nukes it!!!Everything else is just yada........yada..........

If you cant read and interpret that map above......I cant help you!!

 

[Old Rocks]

Why yes, we do get the crap of two years or more out of date data being posted by "Conservatives" all the time. That is normal considering the average IQ of the "Conservatives". After all, there are more than two numbers in 2014.

 

[skookerasbil]

Later.....off to the beach and sit by the ocean in the freezing cold......80 degrees on Long Island ( means 70 by the ocean ) and almost July. Three straight years now. 15......20 years ago, it'd be in the 90's.

Very odd.......we need some global warming around here!!

LOL.....well the low IQ conservative just cleaned your clock on this page!!!

See ya Ray!!!!

By the way......many recent studies display conservatives more intelligent....sorry ........for another day s0n!!!
