Scientists say to brace for more extreme weather and probably a record-warm 2023 amid unprecedented temperatures.
To the surprise of mostly no one. We’ve been warned for decades.
This is the first I’m hearing of this.
I’m not even a scientist and it’s scaring me too.
🤷 guess we’ll die?
oh right now I’m praying death is all. but likely we’ll suffer a lot first; with fire and famine and poverty and pestilence.
And mass migrations and political strife
Resulting in widespread authoritarianism likely propped up by corruption, and perhaps wars.
I didn’t buy this Bear Grylls machete for nothing. I’m destined to be a raider in the apocalypse.
Y’all should also look into the possible effects on the polar vortex.
If you don’t know what a polar vortex is: Imagine a giant round bubble of cool air sitting on the top of the planet. This is weather that occurs in a higher atmosphere. Normally it doesn’t effect our weather too much, but it has been warbling much more intensely recently. When the polar vortex weakens, it warblers and changes from being a bubble shape into being a big, wavy shape. This pulls cold Arctic air much further south than it normally goes. When it changes the weather, it is usually very noticeable.
Think about all of the nasty weather that happens when there is a sudden change of temperature. These larger influxes in the vortex will continue to bring severe weather like ice storms, hail storms, tornados, derechos, hurricaines, etc.
Scary stuff. How can you accurately predict something that you have almost no relevant data on? I mean, nature isn’t exactly making it easy on us. Things are already becoming much more difficult to predict.
The white house is talking up finding a way to block the sun. We are in some fucked up times.
Sudden? Maybe in the terms of the past 200 years.
