Agamemnon had a climate problem several thousand years ago. He wanted to recover Helen from Troy, but the wind was blowing the wrong direction – for ten years.
Finally, he consulted the top rated climate scientist in Mycenae – who told him that fixing the climate would require sacrifice. Agamemnon dutifully complied and sacrificed his daughter Iphigeneia.
.
That fixed the climate problem, and he was able to sail to Troy and eventually burn the city down. This gave him great satisfaction, but upon his return his wife Clytemnestra murdered him. She wasn’t real happy about his climate sacrifice.
One place in Wyoming has more than 7000% of normal snowpack.
“You know, I understand we’re on our way to being a third-world country, could we just stop at second-world before we get there?” Maher said. “Why doesn’t he point to this and say this is all because of climate change. He doesn’t seem to use what he has to make a case. I don’t hear the Democratic case being made. That’s my point.”
He also said a few weeks ago that tornadoes never used to do much damage.
“we used to hear about tornados that were a few hundred yards wide. This ran 300 miles. They used to just touch down.”
“This is global warming,” Maher declared. “This is global warming – there’s more moisture – it’s what scientist always said. There’s more moisture in the atmosphere. It’s going to cause these giant disasters.”

March 18, 1925 – a large tornado tore through Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana, killing 695 people over 3.5 hours on its 219-mile path. The Tri-State Tornado was not the only tornado on this day; several other tornadoes were reported in the region, bringing the total death toll to some 750 or more, and leaving over 2000 people injured.

We accurately forecast 12 of the 13 big weather patterns that blasted the UK last winter and 80% of people surveyed said they were aware of the warnings we put out and 95% of those found the warnings useful.
Totally agree.
