It must be true because that’s what Al Roker said this morning on “Today”. So, East Coasters, you had better get used to it because we all know that Roker is a weather genius. Either that or he’s a complete idiot. :smack:
Don’t bother fixing those fences or re-planting those trees or even replacing windows. Just nail up some plywood, paint it to match the house, stock up on gasoline and invest your money in Coleman stock.
Even if that premise is true, your conclusion doesn’t follow.
Hard to get behind this without an actual quote and some context. And I’d be very surprised if your conclusion was the intended take-away.

Sure this is the second year in a row that the Northeast has suffered a lot of damage from a huge hurricane, but that doesn’t mean it’ll ever happen again! You shut up, Al Roker! Take your knowledge of climatology and weather and your heathen global warming and go to hell!
Like the big bang, evolution, embryology, and set theory, climatology is simply another lie from the pit of hell.
Al Roker said not to bother replacing windows or fixing fences? Wow, anyone who’d say that sounds like a complete fucking idiot. He must be really embarrassed to have suggested something so utterly moronic, and if he has any shame probably wants to just go be by himself for a while and contemplate all the wrong turns he made in his life that led him to be such a hopeless dimwit.
Cities only get flooded if it’s a legitimate hurricane.
Yeah. It’s funny how when we get 3 days of -30 degree temperatures no one ever mentions that “this is the new norm.” It’s always the new norm during heat spells or dry spells, but never for cold or rainy weather. We’ve had storms before. We’ve had drought before. We’ve had EVERYTHING before and will continue to.
It’s true. If it’s a legitimate hurricane, the city has ways to try to shut that whole thing down
Are we sure Roker wasn’t just saying it would take a few weeks for the flooding to dissipate and so on?
Forever and ever, unto eternity, amirite?
Wait, since when does the Right hate set theory? I honestly don’t remember that one.
Well I don’t think anyone is arguing otherwise. What is being argued is that the equilibrium point around which these events take place is shifting to a level where existing infrastructure is unprepared to deal with the resulting outliers.
You speak big words not good.
I think he said “it’s getting worse.”
I think he means we are on a rusty see-saw.
Burn the witch!
Right. Sorry, I’ll dumb it down - “welcome to the new normal”
Most people on the right think that set education should take place in the home, not at public schools.
