The ravings of our commenter not withstanding and no matter how many smear pieces come out of places like desmog, the fact is that for the last 17 years, the climate's been pretty boring:

Yes there have been some tornados, and we had a cat 1 hurricane last year hit at high tide and knock down some trees. Oh yes we've some freak stuff too. But overall, climatewise, it's been pretty boring. It's real hard to scare people with boring.

What's really changed is that population and real estate pressure has increased causing more people to live in storm paths. Also tv channels plus channels devoted to weather reporting have expanded.

The 24/7 news cycle hasn't done us any favors...

Don't know about you, but after having been through some interesting blizzards in Wyoming in the '70s, I can stand boring.

Or a boring hurricane season. We're fairly far inland - but we've had the leftovers of a Cat-3 make it over us... and I'm just as glad we're inland.

Boring? Yeah, I'll take boring.

As an Oklahoman, I agree. Climate is boring - it's the weather that can be all too interesting...

Last I checked New York and New Jersey were there in the seventeenth century.

Just sayin'.

I don't believe I've spoken of weather more than in passing on this forum.

So the "ravings" appear to be more stuff you're making up. You make a lot of stuff up. It's a bad habit.

Weather does make life interesting.

But your thread is about climate.

Maybe you forgot.

Spammers never have anything interesting to say.

More evidence of how little we really know about climate and weather.
