AOC the expert climatologist bartender gets wrecked by actual science. Hi there, @AOC. 👋 You seem to like science. So, I figured I would give ya an education about this topic. 📚 I took the liberty to plot the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) for June-August (JJA) for the period 1900 to 2023. The base period used for this analysis is 1991-2020 and JJA was used because that is what the SSTs are to work with in the GoM going into North Atlantic peak hurricane season (August-October) and SSTs are slow to change due to water's high heat capacity. 🌡️ I'll drop the link to the KNMI Climate Explorer for you to reproduce this chart at your own will. Give that a lil' click-sy and knock yourself out. 🫳 🔗climexp.knmi.nl/start.cgi (the bounding box I used was 20-30°N, 80-100°W) The diamonds overlain represent instances when a major hurricane (i.e., a tropical cyclone with maximum sustained wind speeds of ≥111 mph according to the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale) formed in the GoM. Some years have more than major hurricane in the Gulf, so they're represented by one dot. A total of 75 hurricanes have either formed or tracked through the GoM since 1900.* Of those 75, 40 (53.3%) formed with SSTAs 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒘 the 1991-2020 mean. That's more than half of the subset. * 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑒, 𝐼 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑙𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝐻𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑛𝑒𝑠 𝐴𝑢𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑦 (1957) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐴𝑙𝑚𝑎 (1966) 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 𝐽𝑢𝑛𝑒. What we can conclude from this analysis is that the formation of major hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico is not contingent on warming SSTs. The Gulf gets warm enough every year to sustain a major hurricane, even of category four or five status. So, higher SSTs aren't going to add much additional effect, especially if you consider the fact tropical cyclone kinematics require far more environmental parameters to be favorable in order for a major hurricane to form (e.g., pre-existing disturbance, low deep-layer [200-850 hPa] vertical wind shear and no dry air / Saharan dust). You are oversimplifying a very complex issue that you have little understanding about. You may have been a good bartender, but you make a poor atmospheric scientist. 👎

⬆️ Consult your "expert panel of virologists" and get back to us Quack.

⬆️ And Quack , MD who knows ZERO about the subject chimes in with more TDS!

Let's pretend for a moment that this story is even true, of which I have high skepticism because reliable media. But let's pretend that Trump actually gave Russia a few rapid POC PCR instruments. So? As commsvett said the instrument is meaningless as many labs and offices had them already for the other tests that are performed on them. And even if the instruments were in short supply (they weren't) the issue with delays in covid testing was supply chain issues with raw materials needed to run the tests. Viral transport media was in short supply. This media keeps the integrity of the sample intact as it's transferred from collection site to lab. RNA extraction reagents were in short supply. These reagents extract the covid RNA from your snot swab making it available for a clean PCR assay. PCR master mix reagents such as reverse transcriptase and nucleotides were in short supply. You can't amplify cDNA and thus detect the target Covid sequence without these. Not to mention tubes, pipettes, gloves etc. that were in short supply. Trump could have sent a thousand instruments to Putin that he locked in his basement and it would have made zero difference as it was the reagent limitations that caused the testing delays. But reliable media + TDS in the weeks before an election = more Russia BS narrative.

Going with the Kamala like against it before he was for it strategy..

Useful idiots don't have a logical side.

It's amazing that such an apolitical poster like 4th who has never voted in a single election its entire life is so concerned about this particular election that it starts a thread in a NFL team sub forum about its disdain for one side alone. Because its apolitical and eschews voting.

How many deaths of elderly and immunocompromised patients is Bill Gates and corporate media responsible for by spreading misinformation about covid vaccines protecting you from getting and spreading covid? Patients who falsely believed they were fully immune and thus took unnecessary risks, got covid anyway and died?

I do. Rock solid reliability!

You're called MAGA by morons who have zero clue about what any of what you posted above means. But they "followed the science" so they're all experts!

Bump

Reliable!

What other nuggets of misinformation, geographic and otherwise, do you suppose that CBS instructs its journalists to deliver? What say you Finding? And really, why get bent out of shape about misinformation like this when we have metal mosquito bot swarm satire being promoted on X that's going to end up getting people killed? Reliable indeed.

I WON THE LAST TWO DEBATES, ONE WITH CROOKED JOE, THE OTHER WITH LYIN’ KAMALA. I ACCEPTED THE FOX-NEWS INVITATION TO DEBATE KAMALA ON SEPTEMBER 4TH, BUT SHE TURNED IT DOWN. JD VANCE EASILY WON HIS DEBATE WITH TAMPON TIM WALZ, WHO CALLED HIMSELF A KNUCKLEHEAD! I AM ALSO LEADING IN THE POLLS, WITH THE LEAD GETTING BIGGER BY THE DAY - AND LEADING IN ALL SWING STATES. THE FIRST THING A PRIZEFIGHTER DOES WHEN HE LOSES A FIGHT IS SAY THAT HE “DEMANDS A REMATCH.” IT IS VERY LATE IN THE PROCESS, VOTING HAS ALREADY BEGUN - THERE WILL BE NO REMATCH! BESIDES, KAMALA STATED CLEARLY, YESTERDAY, THAT SHE WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING DIFFERENT THAN JOE BIDEN, SO THERE IS NOTHING TO DEBATE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! DONALD J.

What do you suppose might happen in the media if say a professor at Liberty university said that female students who won't vote Trump should be lined up and shot?
