    They must be new.

    I don't think we hit any 120 days and we had basically no monsoon season.

    Why?

    There wasn't an increase in all those things lol.

    Your own stupid link shows we are well below 1980 in disasters and are currently at a low point since then.

    How in the fuck do you expect people to buy that the climate is getting worse b3cause your own data says it is better now than in the past.

    Idiots.

    No 120 degree days (which has happened only 3 times in 125 year Phoenix history) vs over double the normal number of 110 degree days and a record number of consecutive days over 100? Hmm... I think you must be the one that is new.

    The lack of rain is an entirely different issue that you seem to dismiss out of hand. Are you sure you live in Phoenix? Or are you just that oblivious?

    Idiots.
    35 weather disasters in 1980 and 85 in in 2019? In my world 85 is over double 35.

    But perhaps you are simply the victim of fat fingers and meant to cherry pick 1990 which had 137 weather disasters. That only shows you don't understand trend lines. In order to do a trend line you need to smooth out the line by doing 3 or 5 year averages. For Climate you should be doing 30 year averages. Five year average shows a rapid increase since 1980 with a current plateau for events. 3 year average shows a rapid increase since 1980 with a small drop off the last 3 average. 30 year average shows a sharp increase starting in 1980.

    So clearly if you use data the way it is meant to be used we have seen a major increase in climate disasters in the last 50 years compared to the previous 50 years. While some of that may be due to the increase in human population and where we live not all of it can be attributed to that since Miami, Houston and New Orleans didn't get built 50 years ago.

    That isn't what the link shows lol.

    The fact that you idiots put up evidence that shows you are wrong is fucking hilarious.

    You can't spin this into a positive haha.

    Your link is very old and not accurate at all.

    You googled it and found the first article you saw with a headline you liked without reading it.

    You might want to check the date on it retard.

    May I? This is plotted by cost and adjusted for inflation. Climate-change deniers seem unable to understand that increasingly severe weather affects *everyone* -- we will all pay for these events by increased insurance premiums.
