EthicsDaily.com writer Robert Parham tosses out this little gem of an article about how those of us who don't feel that global warming is as big of a threat as it is being made out to be are "deniers" and should be called out for it. I've got problems...
This slideshow is simply amazing to see. Popular Mechanics does a phenomenal job with this. I'll be buying their August issue.
From the looks of this image, Greensburg was toast no matter what that night. If the storms had formed about 10 miles south and a couple miles west, we would have been talking about two towns wiped out. Click the image to enlarge. Source: NWS Wichita
Instapundit has a good post up this morning about weather radios. A couple excerpts: SO IN THE WAKE OF THE KANSAS TORNADO TRAGEDY, I finally got around to unboxing and setting up the all hazards weather alert radio that I ordered a while back. ... More...
This is unbelievable. We drove through this town last July. It's 133 miles from where I grew up. The town is/was roughly the same size as my hometown, in rural Kansas. It's a small farming community. Everything about Greensburg reminds me of Caldwell...
As only a lawyer can, Glenn Reynolds points out many of the same things that I believe about global warming, but in a much better way. My favorite part: Does this matter? Probably not. Regardless of what you think of the above, burning carbon is a lousy...
I'm sure most of you have never heard of Dr. Heidi Cullen. She hosts a show on The Weather Channel called The Climate Code which basically talks about how horrible we are to the planet and how bad global warming is. She made a comment on her blog...
Here in Texas, we don't have a White Christmas. We have tornadoes. Yes, it's 29 December 2006. We have had at least four tornado reports so far, and it's probably going to continue in to the evening. I love it when people think we can predict...
You've got to love this exchange between CNN's Miles O'Brien and Senator Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma. Here's the best part. INHOFE: I heard your piece [CNN’s March 2006 Global Warming Special called ‘Melting Point’] on that...
I'm not even going to attempt to say I understand what went on in New Orleans last year during Katrina. I will say that I think the rest of the Gulf Coast got hit worse (by the hurricane, important distinction) and has not received nearly the press coverage...
I noticed I haven't posted anything since my hurricane post, so what could be better than following that up with another one? I renewed my subscription to Accuweather Pro this week, mainly because I enjoy reading Joe Bastardi's columns everyday. I can...
I'm an armchair meteorologist. I watch The Weather Channel more frequently than most. I was one year into a meteorology degree at the University of Oklahoma before finding out that a full-time job, wife and new child wouldn't leave me enough time to finish...
I wasn't going to post about this, but the media keeps hammering it. I just watched this video from WFAA in Dallas about the tornadoes this week. In it, they tell how there was no warning for the smaller cities in the path of the storm because there are...
Well, at our house anyway. We had a tornado hit Anna and Westminster on Tuesday (8 May) at around 10:30 PM. Three people were killed in Westminster, and several homes were destroyed. We had some friends that lost trees and will probably need a new roof...
With this year's tropical cyclone season in the southern hemisphere causing a fair bit of damage, the people who state that it is all being caused by global warming are being given more ammunition. Now, with Monica, it seems to be happening again. I personally...
