A few nights ago, sometime around midnight, everyone in the area received an emergency alert stating we are under a mandatory evacuation order due to a wildfire. Except there was no fire. They intended to send a flash flood warning but accidently re-sent the evac order from the fire last fall. So the danger of extreme weather is increasing and we can't even trust emergency services to warn people properly.

if someone does that they should obtain translations of the tip in several languages and try to detect the language used somehow.

During the Black Summer fires last year in Australia the navy ended up having to rescue loads of people trapped in coastal towns by the fires.

...I think you're looking at an old image or a different webcam, because when I posted that it looked like this: It's basically engulfed by smoke now anyway, so it's a moot point.

This is the worst air quality we've had in Colorado this year. When I go outside it hurts to breathe. Literally can't see the mountains.

If you drive up to the mountains the smoke clears out around 10-11,000 feet. Sometimes, depends on the weather.

Yes and I think fire season usually doesn't get going until Sept? This fire has been going on since June/early July or whatever

Is there a way to restore the regular burnings without things turning into a hellscape? It seems pretty clear that “unlimited development and no fires” isn’t a sustainable combination, and for some reason limiting developers doesn’t ever seem to be an option.

We already do regular burnings, the company that initiates them is called PG&E.

BIG HEADLINE posted:When you ~really think about it~ there's technically no drought anywhere because Earth hasn't lost a single drop of water since in millions of years.  Some molecules of water happen to gain high velocity from collisions in the exosphere and gently caress off into space. Three hundred grams are lost that way every second, or enough to drop the level of the oceans by a quarter the diameter of a human hair in one million years. Presently there’s a net gain because humans are burning fossil hydrocarbons and releasing water as a byproduct. For Earth the rate is inconsequential, but it helps us understand what’s happened to other planets in our solar system and what sorts of extrasolar planets might sustain life. https://www.cosmos.esa.int/document...5e-d4bf878f8bf9 Platystemon has issued a correction as of 06:47 on Aug 8, 2021 |
