A smoking mulch bed is a "major fire"? Really?

Great Shot! Below is closer to the storm, last evening about 7 PM in Haddon Heights. Just got clipped with about 1 minute of rain from that curtain seen in your image..

Sweet.. Massive view! Will be in Zermatt again this September and might hit it up. Heres a link to Chez Vrony. Its off the Sunnega lift. https://chezvrony.ch/wordpress/en/

Chez Vrony? (what a place!)

Some folks don't- agree with you. Even in this forum, science based that its' nature is- there are degrees of non-acceptance- lots of distractions. Its the decison makers or disrupters that really count in the long run.

I respect and admire this forum (and your experience) and agree with your opinion. Hate to see you all not on same page with the science. "Chicken Little"? You can kiss my Irish ass.

I see the problem as OUR earth is warming to the point of irrefutable atmospheric change that is now altering global processes and harming ecosystems with no cohesive plan to stop... while we argue about politics.

But, again: The original post was too political/opinionated for this forum. No value added here. Lets follow the science. See my earlier post.

There's a bit more to the situation, in addition to cyclical change, of course. Theres "pre human" period of time...and "post human" period, ongoing. This link: https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/todays-climate-change-similar-natural-warming-between-ice-ages goes to an excellent short article from an equally excellent academic highr education source. It not only agrees with "natural climate cycles" that are in place as vehemently pointed out here (I agree, btw) AND accounts for another set of documented variables that is acting on natural ongoing cycles. Give it a 5 minute read and see how it summarizes our current (global) situation pretty well. Works?

WRT the purpose of this thread- The definition of cyclical (Def. pretty evident on the internet) is not what I questioned- it was the "cyclical cycle" phrase- my head is spinning Also when you wrote " our"- do you mean Chester County, Pa.? (its only .00038 of a percent of the Earths surface so not a representative sample size to clutter up this thread... ) but forgive me if all the Chester County data being posted in this thread (AGAIN) is not indicative of what you are referencing.

Q: In your world, what geographical area is "our"? What is a "cylical cycle"? "Thought it best" for whos benefit? Thanks for enlightening us...

Sir/Ms- I've been around the world, been through a lot, seen a lot, and pretty sure I'm older than you so I'm fairly confident I'm a realist- not what you are referring to me as, above. The name callling can stop. "Unprecedented" is a real word, with real meaning. I chose it carefully. Did you even look at the video? (again, attached below) For your benefit- I took a little time to find a good example (there are many) that cleanly addressed your words in a post above: "Only if we can ever link climate change to any adverse real world weather events." The video provides actual, visual evidence of exactly that. Of course you can focus on parsing words and personal opinion and a bit of name calling- its not relevant or pleasant- but within your right. My opinion is that perhaps you should get out of your "bunker" in Chester County more- look around and observe ground truth not from behind a computer but in a larger, non-digital setting. Ask yourself why you are online, labelling someone you have never met- at 2.30 AM on a Sunday morning as opposed to not. https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=aiden+robbins+danger+in+alps&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:807a5e76,vid:R0NGujTF1Xw,st:0

Heres a video link that documents climate change manifesting weather changes that have and are causing unprecedented, "non-cyclical" and unrepeatable physical changes to an area and its mountains (millions of years old) I have visited and yes, seen with my own eyes. It checks all the boxes you set out and name-call others who believe what they see. The world is much larger than Chester County, I'm afraid... https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=aiden+robbins+danger+in+alps&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8#

OK- Understood. Here's a "link" to a respected institution of higher learning that elaborates on exactly where you are "coming from". Hope you find it of value. https://environment.yale.edu/news/article/link-between-climate-change-and-extreme-weather
