“In addition to its unprecedented 200-mph (320-kph) sustained winds earlier Friday, Hurricane Patricia now holds the record for lowest pressure in any hurricane on record. With a minimum central pressure of 880 millibars (25.99 inches of mercury) at the 4 a.m. CDT advisory, Patricia broke the record of 882 millibars set by Wilma almost exactly 10 years ago. At the 1 p.m. CDT advisory the minimum central pressure was lowered to 879 millibars (25.96 inches of mercury).”http://www.weather.com/storms/hurricane/news/hurricane-patricia-mexico-coast
Meanwhile, forest fires in Indonesia are making life difficult as far away as Thailand, rainfall patterns across Asia are changing unrecognisably and unpredictably, and the rate of climate change will only accelerate social discord, forced migration, and civil war. Are you all ready?
I don’t think I’m ready. The changes will be immense in scale, and there will be a lot of human movement as it happens. I’m sure Benson’s hard at work figuring out a way to blame Obama for something he’s warned about that Congress refuses to admit.

Remember when Homer was scoffing at the idea that “Jeebus” was able to help at all, followed by the iconic line “Save me, Jeebus!!”?
That’s how Republican voters are with science.
