:) Can you shape the charge to spare Chi and NE Oklahoma?

Brazil now rejecting foreign aid for the fires.

Screw you for electing this clown, Brazilians.

I'm amazed more of TX isn't in the red zone. When I think of tornadoes I think of OK, KS and north TX.

Maybe the Texas heat plus gulf air is the bedroom (back seat of the Chevy in their case) and not the delivery room.

Maybe although I didn't think tornadoes, with some notably awful exceptions, had much of a lifespan.

Who needs Oxygen? Always been overrated anyway. Money and shareholder value is where it's at.

Was it BS?

Almost the entire Brazilian legislature and IIRC the prior three presidents are under indictment. The Brazilians I know (full disclosure, they voted for Bolsanaro) say it's the most corrupt political class on Earth (an Earth that includes Russia) and everybody is a crook.
 
Re: Climate Change 2: Thank God for Global Warming

It's color rating the potential wind speed, not the probability of tornados. The swampy heartland most likely reacts with favorable tornadic conditions to help fuel tornados.

Yes, you can read Brian Mier and Glenn Greenwald's reporting on it. Michael Brooks has talked about it a ton on his podcast as well: (skip to maybe the 3 min mark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evZ1y7mcmXc )

3.) Lula’s corruption conviction refers to an abuse of authority in exchange for services. As in the previous Car Wash case against Lula, investigator Sergio Moro was unable to prove what these favors were, since the reforms in both cases took place several years after Lula left the presidency and no longer held any public office.

And yes they have a long history of corruption in that country but this is a reach at best.

Why not.

Breaking News: The Trump administration is set to announce that it will sharply curtail regulations on methane emissions, a major contributor to climate change.

Bye Bye Planet.

https://www.npr.org/2019/08/29/7553...n-methane-emissions-from-oil-and-gas-industry

The Trump Administration is proposing to slash restrictions on the oil and gas industry for methane emissions, a greenhouse gas that is a powerful driver of climate change.

Environmental groups are alarmed. "This would be a huge step backward," said Ben Ratner, a senior director at the Environmental Defense Fund. "It would cause greatly increased pollution and a big missed opportunity to take cost effective immediate action to reduce the rate of warming right now."

The Trump administration argues it would save the oil and gas industry $17 million to $19 million annually in compliance costs. But that's "such a small fraction of the industry total cash flow that it's just laughable," says Harvard University's Steven Wofsy, a professor of atmospheric and environmental science.

The Trump administration also says it does not anticipate an increase in the level of methane emissions if the proposal is implemented — but scientists disagree with that assumption.

Re: Climate Change 2: Thank God for Global Warming

One of the Pubbie/Russia goals has been obvious from the beginning. Shutdown as many existing regulations, taxes, and policies as possible, regardless of their merit, and then dare the Democrats to reinstate them without cries of "MOR GUBMIT INTURFEERUNCE!11!1!"

It's going to take at least a decade to undo all of Cheeto Benito's damage. Anyone who votes Pubbie in 2020 is a fascist thug by association (at a minimum), that goes without saying.

I liked it better when Leo McKern was in it.

Large swathes of New South Wales and southern Queensland will face catastrophic weather events over the next months. The reason is Antarctica's westerly winds which control the Australian climate, are impacted by 'sudden stratospheric warming.'

As a result, the direst prediction is a change in Australia's rainfall patterns. The likely outcome is drought, desertification, mass deaths of livestock, plants, fish and other wildlife, out of control fires and unbearable heat.
