Joe Biden vs. the Tornados

American Thinker:

By Anthony Watts

Speaking in Wilmington, Delaware on Saturday, President Joe Biden blamed the recent deadly tornado outbreak in Kentucky on “climate change.” Biden stated, “The fact is we all know everything is more intense when the climate is warming and obviously it has some impact here.”  

Biden’s statement is laughably inept and easily disproved. All one has to do is look past the opinions, pronouncements, and hand waving and concentrate on what science and data actually say about the issues.

First, the top five deadliest tornadoes in America all occurred between 1840 and 1936. The Great Natchez Tornado on May 7, 1840, killed 317 people and was the second-deadliest tornado in U.S. history. The deadliest was the March 18, 1925, Tri-State Tornado, which was also the longest-tracked tornado in U.S. history. The massive F5 tornado traveled 219 mi (352 km) across Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana, killing 695 people. 

Second, the last half of the 65-year U.S. tornado record had 40 percent fewer strong-to-violent tornadoes (EF3 rated or greater) than the first half. To claim that climate change is causing severe tornadoes is speculation, and directly opposite data publicly available from the National Weather Service (NWS).

Dr. Roy Spencer, a climatologist at the University of Alabama, Huntsville points out, “To claim that global warming is causing more tornadoes is worse than speculative; it is directly opposite to the clear observational evidence.” more here

  1. No matter how many times you lie about the weather, it’s not going to change the fact the the climate on our planet is constantly changing and no amount of blather will make your idiocy so.

    “Anything dipshit thinks he could do would be equivalent to casting his sorry ass into Kīlauea to appease the volcano Gods.”

    Hold on there – don’t be so hasty to not try that.
    I’m willing to see if would work.

  3. Will we ever get tired of pointing out the ludicrousy of the left and “climate change”. Probably not.

    Climate is always changing. Some think that humans can somehow override what God and nature have done forever.

    You, RogerF, and your gas-powered vehicle will destroy the world.

    According to the scientific theory, my response is … prove it

  4. Tina of “Start Earning” fame. Reminds me of Tina the evil doll in an old Twilight Zone TV episode. The Kojac guy was the father and noticed something not right about Tina the doll. He tried to get rid of it, but nothing worked. He’d bash it, smash it, burn it, drill into it, drown it, run over it, but nothing he did would kill Tina, she always came back with an evil grin and say “Hi I’m Tina”.

    That’s what I think of when I see, day after day, Tina’s get rich quick scheme. Will she not just go away?
