Hong Kong Braces for Super Typhoon Usagi – WSJ.com

Super Typhoon means winds over 150 MPH. Is 121 greater than 150?

The United States’ Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) unofficially classifies typhoons with wind speeds of at least 130 knots (67 m/s; 150 mph; 241 km/h)—the equivalent of a strong Category 4 storm in the Saffir-Simpson scale—as super typhoons

WASHINGTON – Rep. Andy Barr, R-6th District, joined Friday with many other coal-state lawmakers in attacking the Environmental Protection Agency’s rules to limit emissions from new power plants.

“These greenhouse gas rules are designed to complete the job that years of regulatory attacks and delayed permits started: the elimination of coal from the energy marketplace,” Barr said in a statement. “The outcome of these ruinous regulations will be hundreds of thousands of Americans added to the unemployment lines and, in President Obama’s own words, electricity costs that will ‘necessarily skyrocket.’”

Global warming is the stupidest religion yet.

According to Weather Underground, the peak flow of the 1894 flood was four times larger than the 2013 flood. Comment below was made right at the peak on Sept. 13.

So far it seems the flow at 14th St on Boulder Creek downtown has just been 3,100 cfs whereas the 1894 event was four times that.

May 29 to June 2, 1894

This flood, caused by a downpour, washed away much of the city of Boulder’s downtown district. Mountain rainfall, combined with snowmelt runoff,   produced the greatest flood known in Boulder County and inundated the valley. Every bridge   in Boulder Canyon was swept away destroying the highway and railroads as far up the canyon as Fourmile Canyon Creek. Buildings were destroyed at Crisman, Sunset, and Copper creeks. The town was isolated from other Colorado communities for five days.
