Says the guy who has twice insulted my supposed political affiliation to prove his point.

I'm not triggered. I just have better things to do. Read some real research. I have. And I spent 6 years in college studying it.

As long as you apply this logic uniformly. Especially to climate change dening studies.

And I agree you can't contribute A single storms stregnth to the climate change. A storm is weather, climate is long term and if we see a pattern of these storms then we can say they are caused by the climate changing.

Also, this isn't some anti trump conspiracy. We all know he controls the Dept of defense, which over sees the dispersal of weather controlling chemtrails.

It isn't a single storm. Nor would a strike by a single hurricane cause this level of flooding. The stagnation of weather systems due in part to climate change has caused heavy rain events to sit over swaths of land for abnormally long periods of time. Houston has had 3 x 500 year storms in 3 years. Missouri had 2 record breaking 500 year floods in 18 months. Dating back to the 1800, the highest crest in 2015 was surpassed the 1915 mark by an astounding 5 feet. That record was beaten again in 2017.

Due in part to climate change you say. And absolutely nothing to do with a high pressure area that prevents a low pressure system from moving further inland. So now high pressure areas are forming because of humans burning fossil fuels and causing global warming.

If you had started flying to Alaska 20 years ago, you would have witnessed the amazing retreat of the glaciers in SE Alaska.

Deny it all you want, but the earth is warming and putting more water in the atmosphere. When that happens, you get bigger, more powerful storms. Harvey and Katrina are no coincidence.

Good thing we cut FEMA's budget to the bone. Those liberal government programs have to go. At least those red caps will help recover the bodies.

The Earth will go through warming and cooling periods, it has in the past and will continue in the future, fact.

That isn't what I said. What makes high pressure areas and ridges and trophs and what makes them move? There is much more to atmospheric Dynamics than the H you see on your surface analysis. Recent research has indicated that AGW is playing a roll in the increase of wave stagnation...like I said earlier. That has contributed to the longer duration extreme heat events and rain events that have lead to historic flooding...to include the hurricane..

Yeah especially when their budget is twice the size it needs to be it has to waste money on things it doesn't need.
