Hurricane Patricia

12  2015-10-24 by Ihopeitsround

Just curious if anyone has anyone has any deep information on this. How bad is this really gonna be? For the U.S. and Mexico? I know this isn't the best sub for this, but the earth changes could be considered a "conspiracy", in the sense that they have veiled its true effects from us; or, because they have orchestrated it. We know that the San Andreas faults gonna pop anytime in the next few decades. Earthquakes are happening at a higher frequency, temperatures are becoming unstable, and species are dying off at an alarming rate. This is really just the latest of many warnings that our planet is, to be frank, unstable. We need to care about this kind of thing, and contrive care in others, or we will be swept away by Earth's ferocious yawn.

Its raining a good bit in the Coastal Bend of Texas. The lack of infrastructure at the county level to deal with the potential disasters is the biggest conspiracy.

Who is they, and how have they veiled climate change? Last I checked they've been announcing the potential affects, including more severe hurricanes and typhoons for a few decades now.

Can you show me your source on earthquakes year-to-year?

I think what's crazy is that this storm came out if nowhere, you heard nothing about it until it was THE BIGGEST STORM EVER. just in time for the climate conference closing in Paris. .

Well it went from tropical depression to category 5 in a few hours. I don't think they can predict hurricanes with perfect accuracy that far ahead of time, do you?

-1  UgUgImDyingYouIdiot 2015-10-24

They seem to think they can predict the climate 100 years out...

There's a difference between weather (short term) and climate (long term).

Climate is made up of weather

And houses are made of wood. That doesn't mean a tree is a house.

The strength and hardness of a weird determines the strength and hardness of a house.

Are we just making comparisons here and no longer talking about the subject?

Looks like weather mod. Huge storm highest wind gusts ever, hits land and dies almost instantly. I mean the eye of the storm broke apart after land fall in two hours

That's what happens when hurricanes hit land. The way a hurricane forms and grows in strength is due to the temperature of the water below it. Once it hits land and leaves its energy source (warm water) it rapidly dies out.

Yes, that's how hurricanes work.

The "reports" are that there was NO DAMAGE AND NO LIFE LOST for the strongest hurricane ever recorded...This whole god damn storm is one big hoax. That is impossible, absolutely impossible if it was a Category 5 Hurricane. I don't know how or why people fall for this BS. NASA shows you some CGI image of a storm they most likely photoshopped right out of by movie "Day After Tomorrow" and everyone just eats right up. We are doomed as a society and planet.

No destruction?

are you seriously that retarded that you think a frickin hurricane has been faked by NASA...

-4  33spacecowboys 2015-10-24

All you would need is a laser to heat up any one spot in the ocean and you can create a hurricane. They form from hot air. Or you could aim the laser at the eye of a storm and you could make it bigger or smaller depending on where you put the heat

Do you actually believe this? I'm sure you have some solid sources to back up your beliefs, yeah?

0  catsb4broes 2015-10-24

ok even in this crazy movie world of yours where NASA has engineered a hurricane using lasers (lol), there's still a hurricane at the end of it... so what do you believe? that there was no hurricane, or there was a hurricane but it was fake? seems like you'll believe anything as long as it's not the truth.

There's a lot of damage. For example, the Union Pacific train in Dallas that derailed. Significant flooding, multiple injuries, etc. What are you reading that's claiming no damage?

This is what I've noticed, too. I had my suspicions yesterday, then woke up today and read:

"It is very important that the population stays in the shelters, the security forces will be patrolling to protect their homes," Peña Nieto said. "I repeat, we still can't let our guard down."

Boston Marathon?

1  Dongly_mc_dongerson 2015-10-24

What would you suggest people do in a natural disaster? Go outside and shoot at it?

1  fatcyst5 2015-10-24

No, that seems ineffective. Which is why I wonder what security forces would do should they get caught up in the storm.

EDIT: That should have been phrased past-tense but oh well. F-you syntax
