My apartment drained real fast too. Landlord does not seem to accept my hypothesis that this means the cork he put in the holes didn't work and that it drained out the same holes and that this is going to happen again maybe worse in 2 days.

Jose posted:It owns that the country most responsible for climate change is regularly being brutally owned by it and nobody in charge gives a poo poo most of the world is going to be brutally owned by climate change the US is huge and rich though, so it can withstand much more ownage with relatively mild death tolls think about the difference between the response to the Puerto Rico disaster and the response to hurricanes that hit the mainland US. disasters can be made far worse by economic and logistical difficulties. though I'm not sure if "the government threw your island under the bus because no white people live there so they don't give a gently caress about it" counts as an economic obstacle or a logistical one

i say swears online posted:okay you seem like you know something I don't know much about how the West African monsoon is coupled to the systems that generate tropical cyclones off of Africa. Typically the African Easterly Jet is at its latitude and strength maximum around late August/early September which generates the most vigorous tropical waves that are more likely to turn into tropical cyclones. The Saharan Air Layer typically moderates around late July/early August which means that convection is heavily inhibited for these African Easterly Waves until this time. It does take a few more weeks for Sea Skin Temperatures to pick back up once the SAL subsides as well. Monsoon processes that couple to the SAL or African Easterly Jet would definitely affect the productivity of these Cape Verde systems though. A strong SAL can essentially shut down tropical cyclone formation deep into the Caribbean.

Although it's obviously people goofing around, it's something to see after being reassured for 2 years that this area never gets high water/didn't flood for Katrina/etc.

“Right now 19 feet is the official forecast, and we can manage that,” said David Ramirez, the chief of water management for the Army Corps of Engineers’ New Orleans District. His team will be looking out for low points in the levees, junctures with navigation structures, and other fragile points. “The levees protect the city up to 20 feet, but 19 is close and doesn’t include waves splashing up and so on. It’s too close for comfort for us. And that surge could be more or could be less. If things change and it gets higher, at some point, there’s only so much we can do.”
