Messing with the jet stream is terrifying.

means you get a lot of extremes next to each other,” Maue said. Storm fronts coming from the Pacific hit that high pressure heat dome in the Southwest and are pushed north to climb that mountainous jet stream peak, “grab access to that cold air reservoir up there” and bring it back down south down the other side of the hill, he said.

Numerous studies have connected unusual jet stream and polar vortex activity to shrinking Arctic sea ice and human-caused climate change.

The article doesn't talk about impact on this year's crops, but I can't imagine this is good for agriculture.

Its not climate its just weather, bro. The climate has always been changing, bro. Solar? The sun doesn't even shine at night, bro. Your insurance company is just ripping you off, bro. Not every species deserves to make it, bro. How about this April snowball, bro?

You see, the jet stream used to be a mostly horizontal line.

But now, the jet stream is more... "Jeremy Bearimy".

It's going to be alright. They plan to fix this. See they are going to dismantle NOAA and every other organization capable of forecasting the weather...

It's wild. I complained to a friend the other day. I said "This winter has been weird. Maybe that whole thing about global warming was right"

The dude was incredulous.

"I don't know about that" he said. And then dropped an entire ten minutes of absolute nonsense defending why climate change is fake.

Like, mother fucker this has been established for decades at this point and you have seen what's been happening! To say it's widely accepted is an absolute understatement!

The blind eye folks are are willing to turn is insane at this point. My comment was just a lead in to gauge what the current response is.

I think we are absolutely fucked.

Those all sound like late 80s album names.

Good. Everything is deserved. This is what we get for letting uneducated people vote and lead countries who in turn underfund education and perpetuate the problem. We absolutely live in Idiocracy.

As Tool once said:

'Cause mom's gonna fix it all soon. Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

Does this mean winter is gonna show up or what?!?!

Ngl, but each of those sound like bad ass moves in pokemon.

Please include the Orange and MAGA on the list.

don't you kinda have to have a heat and cold dome to have an atmospherice river?

Nice!
