re: #407 lawhawk

Some folks might not understand just how hot/humid it can get and get dehydrated. It’s sensible.

What isn’t sensible is that the GOP still proudly holds to anti-global warming views and that climate change isn’t going on.

It is. And we’re already seeing the results. Along the East Coast, we’re seeing water temps more than 10 degrees warmer than usual. That means that there’s a potential for more and stronger hurricanes and tropical systems up the coast, and that could mean far more damage and loss of life.

I was talking to a friend about that yesterday, after Long Island got hit with a tornado within a mile of my house and waterspouts were spotted on the Great South Bay.

This is the future. We may as well get used to tornado warnings on LI, because they’re not going away. If anything, they’ll be more frequent.
