Fifty Years Ago Today

Fifty years ago, everybody understood that the 1930s and 1940s were warm.

“Droughts, floods, blizzards, tornadoes, typhoons and hurricanes have plagued much of the nation and the world in recent years. Most people considered these weather conditions to be abnormal and temporary, but instead, climatologists now believe that the first half of the Twentieth Century was blessed with unusually mild weather and that the global climate has begun returning to a harsher — but more normal — state.”

Miami Drowning

“Millionaires who have been driven out of Miami and Palm Beach by an influx of billionaires have resettled in a different Florida city- Fort Lauderdale.

Super wealthy individuals like Jeff Bezos and Ken Griffin have snapped up homes in Miami and Palm Beach, driving up real-estate prices and squeezing out the less rich.

As a result, millionaires have created a lavish enclave in Fort Lauderdale, where thousands of college students celebrate spring break.

The surge of millionaires in the city has led to a mansion-building spree and a rise in property prices.”

Blocked By Ice

“We still have about 3200 nautical miles to go to Greenland. The second and third photos are the latest satellite images (from two days ago). Around Utqiagvik, the ice is broken up, but there’s still too much for us to navigate through safely. Get in there and we’d get crushed. The only boat operating there is the US Coast Guard icebreaker Healy. In the Victoria Strait area, there’s still plenty of fast ice—you could probably drive a tank on it. This highlights the challenge of the NWP: sailboats are not fast. By the time we can attempt to pass through, we’ll be in a rush to reach Greenland before the sea starts freezing again at the end of September. Additionally, autumn storms and dark nights pose serious hazards for navigating in icy waters. There’s no time for delays, and there’s also a chance that the ice does not open up enough”

“I do not want to hear about the 1930s”

Brian Brettschneider has me blocked on Twitter, and says it is because he is too smart.

“I do not want to hear about the 1930s. It’s very likely I know far more than you do about the 1930s.”

It is pretty easy to see why he doesn’t want to talk about the 1930s.
