That none of you have any idea what a " A heat weave Index " Is? " The heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. " https://www.weather.gov/ama/heatindex#:~:text=The heat index%2C also known,for the human body's comfort. The operative words here is "feels like to the human body " So at some time the combination of humidity and heat made feel to humans it high, what does that mean . When you are baking something and the recipe calls for 500f do you set your oven to 350f and throw some water in there to make the food feel like 500f But hey! why let facts get in the way of a good bias. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the definition of the Heat Wave Index "The U.S. Annual Heat Wave Index tracks the occurrence of heat wave conditions across the contiguous 48 states from 1895 to 2020. This index defines a heat wave as a period lasting at least four days with an average temperature that would only be expected to occur once every 10 years, based on the historical record" https://www.statista.com/statistics/1293872/us-heat-wave-index/#:~:text=The U.S. Annual Heat Wave Index tracks the,every 10 years%2C based on the historical record. So the heat wave index is not a measure of absolute heat, but rather relative heat. What follows is a graph of average temperature measurements for the continentailUS in the 20th century https://www.climate.gov/news-features/blogs/beyond-data/mapping-us-climate-trends So it takes a lot higher heat to qualify as a heat wave nowadays.

Popular Post heybruce Posted July 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 28, 2023 Why rely on science when you have a Fox News opinion piece to tell you what to think. Also, and I know this is difficult for some people to grasp, what is happening in the US is not necessarily indicative of what is happening globally. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it is broken down to specific areas... in this case the USA... some temperatures are up and some are down... so for you to say that it is global is misleading... global is all inclusive and the facts are that it is not a global trend at all but rather is a locational phenomena. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try again! Actually he is spot on, as la nina & el nino affect different areas differently, globally. Experts vs bar stools ... "While El Niño and La Niña do impact global climate patterns; however, they neither affect all regions nor do are their impacts in a given region the same. In many locations, especially in the tropics, La Niña (or cold episodes) produces roughly the opposite climate variations from El Niño." https://www.unocha.org/themes/el-niño/el-niño-and-la-niña#:~:text=While El Niño and La,climate variations from El Niño. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USA makes up less than 2% of Earth's surface, so you should think of that data as localized data. The climate problem involves the entire planet and the <2% in USA is should not be construed as indicative of the global situation.

In another thread someone posted statistics from a state in the use as an indication against global warming???? The premise of this whole thread , in the op is based on a graph of the heat wave index apparently having no idea what the "Heat wave index" is, and not even bothering to google the term before they started a thread. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
