Where did the monsoon go?
It doesn't seem that it ever came, at least in most of the mountains. I think I have only heard thunder once this entire summer and even in the afternoons in the mountains it has been sunny when I have been out. It has been nothing but sunny and warm for days on end.
It looks like only a few small areas in the mountains got hit:
Apparently the Sangres and a few plateaus have been getting hit, but that's about it.

I'm old, slow and fat. Unfortunately, those are my good qualities.

I wonder what the survivors of the Dust Bowl would say about the NOAA claim that July 2019 is the warmest on record? The propaganda artists at NOAA need to cover their tracks better.SchralpTheGnar wrote: ↑Mon Aug 19, 2019 8:21 pm https://www.noaa.gov/news/july-2019-was ... for-planet

The records for the 1936 heat wave in Midwest were broken by the 2012 heat wave, many of those were broken by record heat in subsequent years. Additionally, climate is different than weather. It can be cold where you live while the planet is warming.Kevin Baker wrote: ↑Tue Aug 20, 2019 1:21 pmI wonder what the survivors of the Dust Bowl would say about the NOAA claim that July 2019 is the warmest on record?

Re: Where did the monsoon go?
The NYT story said global temperatures were the hottest ever. Your posted gotcha video focus only on US mainland temperatures. You might be more careful with your use of the word "propaganda," as well as the identity of people falling for it.Kevin Baker wrote: ↑Tue Aug 20, 2019 1:21 pm I wonder what the survivors of the Dust Bowl would say about the NOAA claim that July 2019 is the warmest on record?

You believe that the dust bowl actually happened? The dust bowl was a Chinese hoax orchestrated by Obama.Kevin Baker wrote: ↑Tue Aug 20, 2019 1:21 pmI wonder what the survivors of the Dust Bowl would say about the NOAA claim that July 2019 is the warmest on record?
