It's her turn.
hillary about to put two in the back of california's head
Someone get the math nerds in here so we can calculate which one does more damage to poor folks.
We have information that will lead to the arrest of Hurricane Hillary

It's Her Turn (at 160 km/h)
wow, that's a really strange trajectory for a tropical storm, they don't normally make it that far north. another sweet effect of climate change I guess, hurricanes in California.
Wouldn't that be good for California what with all the drought
I think with big rain events, most of the water just flows into the ocean and isn't captured or absorbed.
Wow that sounds pretty dumb
degradation of the ability of land to retain water through development combined with the same development causing more extreme storm events is indeed dumb
water takes time to seep into the ground, the best thing for drought is frequent, but not torrential, rain
No like, catch the water though? Mandatory rainwater catchment systems on literally everything? Idk
Maybe i'm wrong but i don't think i've ever seen an image of California where every house has 55 gallon barrels under every gutter, seems like something that would like, help
the nerds at the World Meteorological Organization spelled it with one L because they didn't want to join the Clinton Death List
The one time you'd hope to see Florida in the news, and it's gotta be the wrong coast.
Shoulda voted harder, Commiefornia
Okay this is me being a big dumbass, but aren't tropical storms / hurricanes usually hitting the east coast? I always assumed the ocean conditions were such that the west coast wasn't really susceptible to them but I guess I've never really learned why that is. Is this happening kinda wild?
They're equally likely to form in the Atlantic and Pacific, but are affected differently by el Nino and la Nina. This is an el Nino year, that's why so many have formed in the Pacific this year. As such, there should be a reduction in Atlantic storms
Interesting, thanks for the explanation!
ANNOUNCEMENT: According to polling of California weather stations, Clinton declared winner of California Primary
