class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What can you easily see in common with all these? The strong ridge along the west coast centered north of southern California. So which one of these events was because of man-made change? How can you tell? YOU CAN\u2019T. BECAUSE IT IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS NATURALLY.\u00a0That strong ridge creates the kind of pattern that causes the strong winds that can spread these fires. SO, IF YOU SEE IT COMING A FEW WEEKS AWAY AND YOU HAVE A KNOWN SETUP, WHY DON\u2019T THE OFFICIALS PRE-PLAN\u00a0FOR THE EVENT?\u00a0 HOW IS IT THEY DON\u2019T KNOW ITS NOT IF, BUT WHEN, THESE PATTERNS WILL SET UP? Because this whole thing is to push their control missive by trying to get the less knowledgeable public to buy into it. It\u2019s how Markey and his\u00a0ilk can make a statement that is the height of ignorance because he has never looked at the weather and get away with it. Fox has weather people; they should have been all over that with the kind of sampling I am showing above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How stupid (sorry that is the word) can the California\u00a0government be?\u00a0 They have more 3x more people than in the\u00a01950s, and they allow water to simply escape into the oceans? Even the Romans knew to build aqueducts to get water to Rome.\u00a0 And by the way, ever wonder why California and Italy are great wine areas? Similar climates. But the Romans were smart enough to know how to use the water that they had.\u00a0 The absurdity of NOT\u00a0developing a system of water storage and distribution statewide from the wet northern areas, because of such things as the infamous protection of some 2-inch minnow is like watching a Saturday Night Live Skit of the Californians<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sanders also made his normal looney bin comments about the California drought. California has a feast-or-famine climate that is overall dry and unless you develop the aforementioned system, is going to be strained almost all the time due to demand. The year was above normal because there was so much rain earlier. This means more vegetation that will dry out for fuel with the inevitable swing back, which it has done over the past several months. So, if you do not have government agencies aggressively countering this, what do you think is going to happen? But here are the facts. California rainfall is not dwindling there is just much more demand.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"379\" data-attachment-id=\"362175\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=362175\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-487.png?fit=640%2C379&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,379\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-487.png?fit=640%2C379&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-487.png?resize=640%2C379&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-362175\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-487.png?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-487.png?resize=300%2C178&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">acreage burned even in the worst years is 1\/5th what it used to be<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"470\" data-attachment-id=\"362177\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=362177\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-489.png?fit=640%2C470&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,470\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-489.png?fit=640%2C470&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-489.png?resize=640%2C470&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-362177\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-489.png?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-489.png?resize=300%2C220&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was on Donald Trump&nbsp;Jr.\u2019s Triggered podcast if you want to get a listen it\u2019s about 50 minutes in.<\/p>\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=\"Fires Rage Across LA, How Dems Destroyed the Golden state, Live with Alex Marlow, John Phillips, and Joe Bastardi | TRIGGERED Ep.206\" src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embed\/v65bt2s\/#?secret=UwJ12SupOT\" data-secret=\"UwJ12SupOT\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">and of course, you see my blogs here, my posts on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/weatherbell.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">weatherbell.com<\/a>\u00a0premium, tweets and of late our show, the Wise guys of weather with all the shows for you to listen to.
