I visited Phoenix in February and it was super nice, citrus trees fruiting all over and a super pleasant climate for like half the year maybe?. I could make a living there, too. But AZ is going to need a massive desalination plant on the Sea of Cortez to replace CO River water and lol i'm not betting on that.

i wonder if a 2/3/4 stage evaporative cooler would be sustainable in phoenix. sure water is going to be an issue in the mid term but the alternative doomsday scenario is the east coast scalding swamp weather. evaporative cooler assisted AC too.

The important thing is that we can all agree that Arizona is doomed and I think we can take great comfort in that truth.

Atmospheric river forecast to hit southwestern B.C. Thursday through Saturday. The cool, wet winter and spring means we have a healthy snowpack in the mountains and unlike the last 10 years of "normal" it hasn't really started to melt off yet. Gaia's about to turn a firehose on it though so we might have some interesting flooding pictures by the end of the weekend.

the bitcoin of weed posted:didn't this submerge every road out of vancouver when it happened last year Really depends on the severity of the atmospheric river. They're a fairly constant fact of life in the PNW but some are much more prominent than others, which motivated forecasters to adopt a rating scale not long ago. https://www.wunderground.com/cat6/Cat-1-Cat-5-Scale-Atmospheric-Rivers

redleader posted:looks like you can have your arizona wet bulb if it hovers around 122F the problem is that "wet bulb" infers some amount of moisture. a lot of it even. but the reality is that what we are referring to more simply is "so hot you die." clearly that's a thing, it can be so hot that you will no longer continue to be alive. if you jumped in a volcano we can all agree that it will be so hot that you die. if we built a larger version of your kitchen oven and you were to go in it while cooking a giant pizza, you'd die. babies are often killed in cars, not just from all-to-frequent violent collisions, but also when parents absentmindedly forget them and the inside of the car gets so hot that they die. there will be many places on the earth where it is routinely so hot that you die
