  1. Chester County PA is .00000038 % percent of the Earths surface. Lets broaden our horizons again, shall we?
  2. Heres the thread you created when asked before. Thanks Chester County PA - Analytical Battle of Actual vs. Altered Climate Data By ChescoWx, July 22, 2024 in Climate Change
  3. Again- Please take the Chester County, PA. back and forth to the thread created for the Chester County PA. back and fort. Please.
  4. Chubbs- A reminder, once again....As you may recall- a seperate thread was created for your ongoing quest to debate Chester County Pa with the resident troll here. If you could take that "debate" there, along with the troll- I think many of us who don't care about Chester County Pa weather site trivia would be better off for it. Thanks
  5. Thats funny...I was thinking the same thing. I'm in western Camden County, NJ...not a drop here today. I remember that storm well- 2 feet at the beach and the precip line just stopped near egg harbor tolls. I actually wrote to Elliot Abrams at the time (in a respectful way, asking what tha?) and he was kind enough to respond comprehensively. Seemed like such a locked in forecast- only to unravel almost the same day. Very similar to this one...professional forecasting is so difficult at times. It almost feels as if the models still can't predict such vagaries- even decades later.
  6. Thanks for your meaningful contribution. We all can see that you have been reduced to heckling and peddling BS opinions, troll. I'll follow my own advice and ignore your posts completely in the future (like so many in the forum it seems.) Buh Bye.
  7. Your next to last sentence and prior ones are opinons, of course. Then- read your last sentence, slowly. Talk about contradicting yourself! Case closed.
  8. I'm referencing effects of a warming climate- not weather. I've seen melting permafrost in Northern Norway, rapidly melting (in geologic and real time) icefields in Iceland and Alberta, Canada- rapidly melting glaciers in Switzerland and the American West and unprecedented bleaching of coal reefs in the Carribean. Northward migration of invasive plants and animals intop the interior of the Adirndacks, shortening of "ice season" on our boreal lakes in the North Country of NY and salt water intrusion into coastal cedar swamps in NJ due to sea level rise. These things and may more are occurring. They are irrefutable and real and measured and progressing and accelerating= verified first hand. You can choose to believe me or not- but I've answered your inquiry. In return - I would simply ask you to acknowledge whats going on around us as real- as that debate can no longer be supported to to the visible objective evidence and effects. The data analysis is simply court reporting on a known verdict. I've offered a few objective evidence examples, in my own way, on this forum (Switzerland glacier collapse, as example)- whiich you seem to slough off- but you haven't been at site to know better. Consider that good people with good data and senses (eyes, speech, memory) are seeing what is going on. No need to push back any longer. We need some solutions. I'm kind of done in sensibly responding to you- please consider your stance- from an objectiive evidence perspective- not opinion of others. Thanks.
  9. I do, sir. This is because I've travelled extensively around the globe and seen widepread physical objective evidence of a rapidly warming climate. You can choose to believe that or not- but my eyes and ears and logic all agree that our climate is beginning to become dangerous for us and other species. You don't have to leave Chester county to know the world is not flat...
  10. Unfortunately, some people are too naive, stubborn, ignorant or deluded by others to recognize the preponderance of actual evidence and real world events that point to an oncoming conclusion. Just how it is- they then hear their own echo chamber or are goaded by others. For the greater good- I think these people should be politely ignored by those not so afflicted. See Isaac Cline - 1900 Galveston Hurricane.
  11. This dataset stands on its own. You can spin it, cherry pick "micro-areas", argue about its veracity or deny it exits. But in the real physical world- this dataset is corraborated by actual events and changes that one can visit, see and touch...that only this trend can explain. Lets continue to keep a macro view, shall we?
  12. To amplify further- coincidentally, this mutinational (10 nations, many scientists) study just released details the rapidly declining glacial trend and causal mechanisms. Effects of this trend alone will be significant to the human populace near or dependant on glaciers or the bodies of water they drain into- including the Oceans. https://www.uaf.edu/news/study-finds-alaska-rest-of-earth-to-lose-most-of-glacier-mass.php
  13. Here's the thoughts on the causal mechanism. The Swiss live in concert with glaciers, rockfall and permafrost. I too, have seen these landscapes rapidly changing in places I've visited such as the Central and Northern Rockies, Austrian and Swiss Alps, Norwegian Alps, Dolomites and Iceland. The changes there are accelerating as one can readily see and in talking with the locals- you don't need a lot of data to understand what is going on. They are huge and macro in nature. I'd ask that Dyou do a little reading on glaciology and get familiar with this science before you readily use the words "nothing burger". Maybe in a small county in Pa. according to your rightly disputed charts- but to throw that opinion around conflicts with observed real life. I hope you can realize that. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-causes-glaciers-to-collapse-like-the-event-that-buried-a-swiss-village/#:~:text=The glacier's collapse and the,the past couple of weeks.
  14. So what is your position on Climate change- is it "Cyclical" or "a nothing burger"? Does it change? Is the larger trend warmer? No? Is there life beyond Chester County? I just got back from Valais Canton in Switzerland. I can assure you that the people who used to live in the village of Blatten, after the glacier collapse do not think that a warming climate is a "nothing burger". ...and thats a fact.
  15. C'mon man. "Headlines"? " Debunking"? For God's sake- Its the New York Post (of all gospel "news"sources...) paraphrasing a 22 year old. You're embarassing yourself.
