The Washington D.C. based US Drought Monitor shows us that flooded New Mexico is experiencing an exceptional drought.
As always, the government is reporting highly accurate climate information – in pursuit of keeping the public properly informed about the threat of climate change.
You just cannot believe your lying eyes, trust in the ‘experts’.
The website is down due to flooding.

“The website is down due to flooding.”
You can’t make this stuff up. That is great.
Comparing the drought map with the local news photo, it’s obvious that one of them is from that other NM in a parallel universe.
Fortunately, your local 5-day forecast is still reasonably accurate. The bad news is that the gubmint insists that its longer term forecasts and regional weather news reports must all conform to the Flying CO2 Monster religion, which posits permanent drought in certain parts of the USA, thanks to evil humans who drive SUVs.

Rain has been above average for most of the southwest over the past month.
Past three months, since early July.
Thanks for the update on your amazing drought-flood in Colorado. We are following it closely here in Australia.
This is the wettest extreme drought I have ever seen.
Flooding is what makes droughts extreme, otherwise they are just droughts.
Boulder just got half a years rain in three days, what you call a 1000 year storm. Maybe New Mexico is just normal stuff but, how does Boulder square with your climate world view?
Cut the bullshit. It was at worst a 100 year storm, as I have pointed out repeatedly. Do you actually read the blog?

Maybe these floods will help you understand the term “climate change” vs “global warming”. By the way, I don’t think we can tie specific weather events to climate change. I did so just now because you seem so hyper on the subject.
Perhaps if you actually read the blog you wouldn’t be so superstitious..
