Chicago Innundated By "Freak" System Now Becoming Routine
As we've said on this blog often, climate change is producing hot summers and more frequent, heavy rains.
Chicago got it again.
Remember, Milwaukee (and any climate change deniers in these here area codes): it's still only July.

At least tiny tim got it right:

Drought/heat/heavy rains/climate extremes all go together, with consequence for cities, homeowners, farmers, taxpayers.
Regardless of whether our sacred earth is warming or cooling we must ask if it morally right to spew billions of hydrocarbons into our closed system each day. Mother nature did this billions of years ago via catastrophic events but now it appears we have created the same but long term event since the dawn of the industrial revolution.

Ask your high school science teacher - or your air conditioning technician - about the relationship between temperature and the moisture carrying capacity of gases.
We're darn near out of water in the City of Waukesha. According to the experts, if we don't get a Lake Michigan Diversion we may need to shower once monthly instead of twice.
They've been honest with us so far.We're spending so much money on those experts, our water bills have already doubled!
Where is AlGore when you need him. Humans as the cause for global warming has never been proven. That is also ignoring the fact that we haven't really been warming the last ten years.
I also like how it is usually not referenced as "global warming," but the much more encompassing "climate change."
Regardless of the cause, I'm glad it is warming. It may save me the cost of buying a winter home in FL or AZ.

Yes, you can stay in WI and enjoy the stormier weather, the forest fires, the newly arrived insect species that will make your life so much fun in old age. It will be great!
