   When I interact with climate scientists I never hear them express the anecdotal hysterical that people like Bob Ward, Brad Johnson, Chris Mooney, Joe Romm, etc. constantly spout. I’ve read stories of people so hysterical that they murder their entire family in the belief that they are protecting them from burning up from catastrophic global warming. One can’t help but wonder when medicine recognizes global warming hysteria as a medical condition.

       They always talk about how their cousins or grandmas never knew such daily climate changes. 🙂 Normal rubbish.

     There is no ICD code for global warming hysteria, but there are plenty of codes for various injuries sustained due to extreme weather.
     e.g. tornado – E908.1 (E codes are used for illness caused by “External” events)

   At any given point in time, some places will have above normal rain, others below normal rain. That is weather for you, always has been and always will be so in the future. It is farcical that picking out someplace that is either wet or dry for the moment means anything with respect to climate change.

   Climate Science . . . The modern version of Alchemy.

   And just as delusional.

   Children just aren’t going to know what a drought buster is…

   Allen dumped 10 to 20 inches of rain in south Texas, ending a summer-long drought during the Heat Wave of 1980.
