By maxpower Go To PostWhy do we keep having La Niñas? Aren't the ocean temps getting warmer? How do we keep having colder than average temps that create La Niña?Gonna talk out of my ass, my assumption would be: instead of cold air staying up in the ice caps and in a polar vortex it's migrating down towards us as they melt.
By reilo Go To PostGot my ass woken up by sweet sweet thunderIt was a rainstorm all last night over here and resulted in my best sleep in weeks.
After initial "what the fuck was that???" since I haven't heard thunder like that in twenty years I was pretty cool with it. It only lasted ten minutes for the storm to roll through.

The El Niño’s over the last decade just didn’t bring any water to the US, really.
Everytime I stow away my down cover, there's another night with sub 10 degree temps and I need to take it back out again.
Within the next year Britain will have 40c temps for the first time ever but no one will notice because we'll be arguing about unisex toilets.

But, you know, pubs will hit the jackpot and the economy will be spinning.
Crazy how hot the world is getting. The migration/refugee crises, not to mention the world hunger due to drought is going to get really ugly, real quick - I mean it already has if we're being honest.
Canada and some other countries alike are set to benefit enormously from climate change. The potential for agriculture once the land warms up, the oil/minerals/gas in the artctic and being able to live in a more hospitable climate (and not just toronto/mtl/vancouver) is gonna be a boost to the country. Canada is huge, we're gonna fill the north country with new immigrants and locals as the country warms up.

I remember seeing someone collapse while walking outside while in Tokyo from what I assume was due to exhaustion from the heat. This was an elderly person walking with an umbrella to boot. That day was insane hot and humid.
after having 40 degrees days in June it's been 26 degrees for a week in Tokyo.
About to get back in the 30s from tmw it seems.

Just lined the window in my home office with foil. This shit sucks.
Did I say within the next year? I must have meant within the next week.

Trees cool cities down by providing shade and mitigating the effects of so-called “urban heat islands,” which are prevalent in Paris, by absorbing radiation. Météo France, the national weather service, has estimated that temperatures on those heat islands during recent heat waves were sometimes 9 to 18 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than in surrounding areas.https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/18/world/europe/paris-trees-global-warming.html
In mid-June, as France was suffocating under scorching temperatures, Mr. Le Dantec wandered around Paris with a thermometer. In the Place de la République, he recorded temperatures of up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit on concrete surfaces, compared with 82 degrees under a 100-year-old plane tree.
It's why places like LA are unwalkable to me.

Existed in much cooler temperatures.
I just had to for the first time. You can get specially applied window film layers that do the job better on a permanent basis.
You have to remember that this happens for sum total of like 3-4 days in the last 4 years, so no one actually invests in good cooling.

By DY_nasty Go To Postbrits really put tin foil on the windows when it gets hot?Bruh my bedroom at an old flat I had put up foil on the singular window because it was right by the water on the 3rd floor and had full view of sunrise. Foil saved my life. As low class as it was.
By maxpower Go To PostI wish California would invest in giving out solar panels for homes. I can't be spending $300 a month keeping my AC running an having to turn it on earlier every year. I'm also sick of being a slave to PG&E.I'm guessing Florida uses much more efficient hvac tech because my ac is blasted 24/7 and my electricity bill is rarely more than 80-120
