GlobaloneyWarming now causes Tornadoes !

What happened to all the Hurricane activity?

by StFerdIII

GlobaloneyWarming causes the cooling, which reinforces the warming, which generates of course, increased tornado activity......[and bad hair cuts too]. The Eco-Terrorists blame SUVs for the ~~worst~~, 2~~^nd~~ ~~worst~~, 5~~^th~~ ~~worst~~, 8^th worst year of tornadoes in history based on dead and injured [but isn't the pattern clear ?]

Such propaganda ploys have been tried before. In the wake of the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, greens promised that this was only the beginning, that future hurricanes would be bigger, more destructive and more frequent. But then came three years of relatively mild hurricane seasons. The inconvenient truth for the doomsayers was that long-term data showed relative stability in hurricane size and frequency. The scale of the 2005 disaster had much more to do with the bad luck of the hurricane track heading straight for New Orleans. If human activity played a role, it was mostly in the incompetence of local officials in dealing with the crisis.

The case linking tornadoes to global warming is even sketchier, and the science is far from “settled.” A 2007 NASA study predicted that the number of tornadoes would increase with global warming. A 2009 study by University of Georgia found the opposite. The number of recorded tornadoes has risen in the last 20 years, but the rise coincides with greater use of Doppler radar and other advanced means of detecting tornadic activity, creating an acute issue of data artifice. A definitive answer to the question may not be possible. Given this lack of proof, the alarmists are forced to fall back on the question “what if?”

There is no evidence that America is facing an increased risk from tornadoes based on human activity or carbon-dioxide emissions, but what if it is? Can we accept that risk? “What if global warming *does* cause more and more powerful tornadoes in the south?” asks The Atlantic. “What then?” This type of non-argument is typical of the reasoning the alarmist camp has been forced to employ as the factual basis for their pet theory crumbles. The questions the global-warming crowd should be asking themselves are: What if everything they have so deeply believed and trusted over the years turns out to be completely wrong? What if the belief system that has given their lives meaning for decades can no longer sustain its inner contradictions? What if their god dies? What then?

Which years have presented the most destruction tornado activity in history? It seems that the early half of the 20^th century was by far the most active. But that of course just proves that GlobaloneyWarming is real. No pattern equals a pattern of ever more activity, more voracious destruction – all catalysed by rising Co2 levels......

“The United States gets about 1000 recorded tornadoes every year. Today, only a few are killers, but that has not always been so. About 200 US tornadoes have killed 18 or more people. Of those, about 150 occurred in the 70 year period between 1879 and 1949. There have been about 45 tornadoes since 1950 that have killed 18 or more people. In the 1950s, there were 18 tornadoes that killed 18 or more people. In the 1960s, there were 12 tornadoes that killed 18 or more people. In the 1970s,there were 11 tornadoes that killed 18 or more people. And in the 1980s, there were only 2 tornadoes that killed more than 18 people. In spite of an ever-burgeoning population, death figures continue to go down as improved forecasting, detection, communications, and public awareness increase.
