First Helene hit the Florida Panhandle and caused a disaster in Appalachia. And this week, Hurricane Milton struck an area of the Florida Gulf Coast that hadn\u2019t be hit with a storm this strong in more than 100 years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Episode #130 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute\u2019s H.

Was this actually and officially a \u201cmajor\u201d hurricane by the time it made landfall?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including Bill Nye saying if you need to vote for Kamala Harris to stop hurricanes, Al Gore exploiting hurricanes for fun and profit, and the seemingly unsinkable notion that humans are able to seed and even steer hurricanes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Join us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET so you can leave your questions and comments for the show in the chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"723\" height=\"407\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RTCefj7j9-E?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-rumble-com wp-block-embed-rumble-com\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" title=\"Breaking Down Hurricane Milton - The Climate Realism Show #130\" src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embed\/v5fz5ud\/#?secret=yGoKHsAvwp\" data-secret=\"yGoKHsAvwp\" width=\"\" height=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Episode #130 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute\u2019s H.
