WTF is Wrong With the Weather

5 years ago

I haven’t had school, or even mail, for the past 5 days(Wednesday through Sunday), due to average temperatures lower than -40° Fahrenheit. When going outside for a minute the entire inside of my nose froze, and I built a 5 foot tall snowman with my younger siblings. Then on Sunday, the temperature raised to 60° Fahrenheit overnight. The snowman was reduced to a pile, and the several inch snowfall on the ground disappeared, only leaving small patches of snow under large trees. I am firmly of the opinion that there shouldn’t be alterations of temperature on this scale.

I keep hearing about some alleged vortex of polar bears but nothing's changed here at all. I guess going outside and firing into the air every morning has been scaring them off.

Actually, now that I think about, the day before the dramatic change my neighbors went outside with balloons tied to their back. I bet that them shooting at each other scared away the nearby polar fiends that have been causing this cold winter.

It's 75 degrees right now and humid af. Could do with some snow. I'll take a polar fiend cub if you have a spare. Just a small one though.

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

I’m not really an expert in the transportation of small animals, but I think that there might be some kind of law of some kind that prohibits the sending of cubs. Then there’s the whole ordeal of trying to steal one from its very protective mother. I’ll also need to see some kind of suitable habitat because while they are kind of a nuisance, I believe that they deserve to recover from their current critically endangered state.

Don't know you enough to know if that was deserved or not. And I was struck by a sudden lack of confidence in my ability to write a correct sentence in English.

It's been like 104 fahrenheit here, every day, all the time. Got up to 113 a lil while ago. It doesn't seem to be as bad as -40 though, like people still go to school and everything.

I remember seeing the news about some North Pole winds being directed towards the North American continent something. The news guys call it a “polar vortex” 

https://m.dailyhunt.in/news/india/hindi/zee+news+english-epaper-zeeeng/polar+vortex+freezes+us+midwest+with+snow+dangerously+cold+air-newsid-107510389

-46degrees (-50F), frostbite in 10 minutes, man that’s something serious. Up to 29 people’s lives have been claimed due to the weather apparently. Lol this news site commented that the US is getting colder than Antarctica: https://www.news.com.au/technology/environment/polar-vortex-death-toll-rises-as-people-found-frozen-to-death/news-story/36e5fd2f697a03b0150cbb982367f1e9

Here's some of the actual science behind it: https://www.livescience.com/57218-polar-vortex-guide.html

It's not exactly a new phenomenon, the news just started really drumming it up during the 2014 cold snap and the name became popularized. There's a polar vortex going on at all times in the Arctic and some years it's just stronger than others.

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

I'm not just talking about just the arctic every place around the world is being affected by climate change and global warming, also just because it was happening even in 2014 doesn't make it fake, it just means the problem was around for awhile and we didn't do anything about it. Maybe i am just misinterpreting what you said

Got 2 words for you. Climate change.

 

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

5 years ago

I’ve also got two words for you. You’re dumb. Climate change has more to do with the change of weather patterns than actual temperature change. Although you are not really at fault because schools usually don’t teach about climate change until 7th grade, and the internet is very big and complex.

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

This is my own fault for not mentioning it but i am also talking about global warming and besides i am pretty sure climate change also affects the temperature

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

Google

“a change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels.”

Since i am on tablet i can't copy and paste the link but just look up effects of climate change from climate and weather

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

It doesn't say that climate change doesn't affect the temperature it says it goes well beyond temperature

WTF is Wrong With the Weather

5 years ago

I looked up ‘does climate affect temperature’

“Warmer temperatures can also lead to a chain reaction of other changes around the world. That's because increasing air temperature also affects the oceans, weather patterns, snow and ice, and plants and animals. The warmer it gets, the more severe the impacts on people and the environment will be.”

Temperature affects climate not the other way around.

How fucking old are you, seriously? If you're over the age of eight you should be doing better than this. Stop typing like a retard, this is a writing site. I'm not sure why this needed to be pointed out, most people would be able to look at what every other poster on the forum is doing and realize that you're the one standing out as a moron. Being a pedant won't save you when you are a fucking moron. It just makes you an even more of an obnoxious one.

1.) You've yet to post anything of value. 2.) When you post, you post a lot. About nothing. You're dribbling everywhere. Austin is enabling it somewhat but you're ultimately responsible for not letting yourself get suckered in. 3.) If you're genuinely trying to improve but somehow at a level where simple sentences in English are beyond your ability, you should stop posting, get off the internet and read more books. 4.) Home schooled kids are supposed to be better at reading. An actual education is the trade off for social skills. 5.) Let's not beat around the bush, the issue is that you're just making excuses and being lazy. 6.) Noobs of your kind are entertaining for a short while but the novelty is quick to wear off and then bad things happen. We've all seen it many times. 7.) I'm the nice admin. The 'harsh' post was intended as a wake up call, to save you from the scary one. Whether or not it serves its purpose is entirely up to you.

Pro tip: you're on a forum, you can take as long to reply as you need. Sometimes it take longer to build an argument than grabbing the first link you find on Google. I'd even suggest not wading into an argument you're not well versed in the points of in the first place but hell this is the internet who am I kidding. Carry on.

Buy a Bluetooth keyboard and use command C and V, or just hold down your finger on a block of text and click select, then proceed to drag the ends of the highlighted bit until it engulfs what you want to cop and click copy. Once this action is completed you can go to an empty text box and hold down your finger once more and click paste.

A pattern of polar vortexes shifting south could be climate change, but I didn't bother responding to the Two Words post because it was literally just using a buzzword used by very few people who have any idea of the actual definition of the phrase. For instance when hurricane Harvey came through for instance I learned that almost no one knows the difference between climate and weather, because words are hard.

It’s supposed to be freezing rain, snow, and when there’s no downfall, it’s supposed to be constantly misting. Yesterday it got up to 65° Fahrenheit, and a lot of people wore shorts, but now it’s back down to 20-40 degree highs with 20 MPH winds.
