2018's Four Corners drought directly linked to human-caused climate change
Date: January 23, 2020 Source: University of California - Santa Barbara Summary: The western United States has experienced such intense droughts over the past decade that technical descriptions are becoming inadequate. In many places, conditions are rocketing past "severe," through "extreme," all the way to "exceptional drought." The western United States has experienced such intense droughts over the past decade that technical descriptions are becoming inadequate. In many places, conditions are rocketing past "severe," through "extreme," all the way to "exceptional drought."The 2018 Four Corners drought -- centered on the junction between Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico -- put the region deep in the red. An abnormally hot spring and summer indicated that climate change was clearly at work, but that was about as much as most people could say of the situation at the time. Climate scientists from UC Santa Barbara's geography department have now distilled just how strong an effect human-induced warming had on that event. Their findings appear in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society's annual issue dedicated to explaining extreme weather events during the previous year. The team found that 60 to 80% of the region's increased potential for evaporation stemmed from human-induced warming alone, which caused additional warming of 2 degrees Celsius. "I was really stunned at how big an effect we found with just a 2-degree warming," said Chris Funk, director of the university's Climate Hazards Center, a U.S. Geological Survey scientist and one of the study's coauthors. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/01/200123152606.htm

Because of the mentality of some people toward science, I almost felt that I should put this on the "Politics" board.

Being aware that global warming is primarily a natural event only very slightly changed by man's activity does not mean one is ignoring science. And despite your acceptance of what is basically a hoax science cannot prove the extent of man's effect on GW.
You'll find plenty of the left wing wackos that believe as you in California schools especially.
Better hurry and do something GW'ers say we only have 12 years or so to do something.

Was/Is the 1930's dust bowl era also linked to "Climate Change"? If not, why not? Just wondering.

'Extended drought, unusually high temperatures, poor agricultural practices and the resulting wind erosion all contributed to making the Dust Bowl'. It's all part of nature and perfectly normal, just like the weather we have today. In fact our weather today is tame by the weather events of past history. Let's not forget the massive 1798 hurricane that hit the UK and lasted for a week doing much damage and killing thousands- they had no hurricane ratings back then but if they did it likely would of been off the scale at a CAT 6. The Galveston Hurricane of 1900 was massive wiped out 6,000 buildings and killed thousands of people, this storm is called the worst storm to hit the USA- was that from global warming too?. The city looked like a landfill after the storm. History is full of massive storms that make todays weather seem tame. Talk about "Super Storm Sandy", let's talk about the super storm hurricane of 1938 it wiped the towns out on the NE coast. There was the "Tempest of 1609" storm that hit very hard, 1667 was called "The year of the hurricane", then there was the "Great Gust Of 1724" a massive storm. Hurricane Diane was our first BILLION Dollar Hurricane back in August, 1955 it hit North Carolina, Hurricane Donna in 1960 darn near wiped Caribbean islands off the map- it was massive with winds of 250 mph and 30" of rain with a huge 14' storm surge, this 1960 storm was another $Billion Dollar Hurricane. Todays weather is tame by the storms we had in the past, but "Climate Change" wackos play todays weather up as if big storms in history never happened and we're the fist to experience them..

Speaking of storms turns out those wild fires in Australia are the result of at least 24 "firebugs" (who were caught) not "climate change". I forgot to mention in the above post hurricane Camille that wiped out the Gulf States in 1969. Be that as it may, I really wonder what would happen today if we had another "Dust Bowl"? I wonder what the response would be and what would the democrats ban, the hyper alarmism would of the event be off the scale. The 1930 Dust Bowl lasted 6 years, with a long drought. I really wonder how would people re-act in todays climate (no pun intended, but may be taken)... I wonder how "Climate Change" would spin out in the media of today blame the "deniers" or blame fossil fuels or what?

In fact a famous storm was the Great Storm of 1913 that hit Lake Huron they have roadside markers about that event. Lake Huron was never more stormier or rougher, waves were a few meters high 6 or 7 ships went down.
