What do the beetle experts have to say?
“Beetles produce an anti-freeze that helps them to survive the winter. Mountain pine beetle mortality requires temperatures of minus 40 for several days. However, an unexpected cold snap in October/November or in March/April may kill beetles even if temperatures are not as extreme. Unfortunately, provincial experts feel that the beetle population is now so high that we will continue to experience outbreak conditions, even if we do experience a significant cold snap (which is unlikely).”
So yes, that 0.6 degrees of warming is devastating the pine forests.
….. even if it wasn’t measured in Colorado!…. 🙂
I need some pine-beetle anti-freeze, do you know who stocks it?
No, no…they wrap themselves in a bubble of CO2, and can then survive anything. Much like climate experts….
And the pine beetles have probably adapted by wearing long underwear
I’ve adapted by wearing long underwear. The overnight low here in the high desert crush previous low of 2 F. We were recording -6 F by 10:00 pm.
Union Suits are making a comeback. Dead sexy!
If Pine Beetles were so temperature sensitive, we’d see infestations at lower elevations and coastal ranges. Once again, warmists display their psychosis.
The larvae have a weird feeling about the weather.
