This is day 31 since Hurricane Helene devastated western North Carolina. I'm sort of wanting to understand this continued dry spell following the storm which carried so much water. Is it all used up and we now will feel drought conditions? we actually were experiencing almost a drought before the 2 storms hit us, with Helene following a two day steady rain.
"It's curious that when WaPo, WSJ and NYT do articles on the relationship between recent hurricanes, such as Helene and Milton, and global warming, they cite and quote media personalities and politicians... but very rarely talk to or quote actual climate scientists who are specialized and published in this area. Just more evidence of the inability of most news editors to grapple with actual science scholarship. It's pathetic." Facebook post 10.24.24 by Robert Scott Horton
