Woke Climatologist

“In the days and months after the July floods that devastated much of Vermont, Lesley-Ann Dupigny-Giroux’s inbox filled with requests.

During that July storm, the skies opened, drowning some parts of Vermont with up to 9 inches of rain in 48 hours. Afterward, government officials and members of the media turned to Dupigny-Giroux, Vermont’s state climatologist, to understand the storm’s link to a globally changing climate.

In an interview with Vermont Public, she described plumes of water vapor that had risen from the Atlantic Ocean and headed west to the Green Mountains — a product of warm air temperatures. To a VTDigger reporter, she explained the role that Vermont’s mountains can play by cooling humid air to create clouds. With the Washington Post, she spoke about the odds that so many inches of rain would fall on Vermont.

In recent years, Vermonters have struggled to adapt to a climate that appears to be changing swiftly. In addition to the July storm, swings between wet weather and drought conditions have presented farmers and loggers with steep challenges”

As Vermont’s climate changes, more Vermonters rely on Lesley-Ann Dupigny-Giroux, the state climatologist – VTDigger

Flooding in Vermont

There is no indication that either temperature or precipitation has become more extreme in Vermont

The 1932 Winter Olympics across Lake Champlain from Vermont, almost had to be cancelled because of a lack of snow.

    VTdigger.org is trying to deflect everyone’s attention away from the below-freezing temperatures coming later this week and the damage possible from all that floodwater become a rather large skating rink. But, no! Instead, “All hail the State Climatologist!!”

    Sheesh.

    The plot for “White Christmas” is premised on the warm weather and lack of snow at Pine Tree, VT, where retired General Waverly is in danger of having his lodge go bankrupt. The stars sing about their dream of a White Christmas, and being a movie, it delivers right on cue. Maybe the weather in VT will change to just benign events if enough people dream about it.

    Another paid propagandist scaremongering with unfounded claims.

    Whether the weather is dry, wet, hot or cold, these financed liars are always scapegoating normal vicissitudes as a man-made changing climate, dangerous, close to a tipping point, etc., ad infinitum. They are not just getting away with deception and fraud – they are being financed by an evil Cabal who think they are gods, to do it.

    As a formerly ignorant believer in the liberty-robbing Globalist New World Order Climate SCAM, that angers me.

    but she doesn’t remember that it’s happened before so it doesn’t count

    Vermont’s state climatologist illustrates well the adverse consequences of DEI based appointments vs those based on merits;-(
