Wild Weather Tonight

[Bushbeater]

Hope everyone is okay. We've been getting pounded in Camdenton. Just had our second storm and we had 50-60 mph winds at least 10 minutes. Getting ready to venture out to check the damages.

Yeah, she got a little rowdy there for a bit.   The white bass sure went on an epic frenzy right before it started moving into the area.     🙂

I didn't see a frenzy but did catch one.

They went nuts up here.  You could stand on the bank just about anywhere and fill a bucket in no time.  

Damnedest thing I've ever seen.

Been outside watching the moon in 68 degree weather.

Meanwhile, tornado seems to have been tracking between the NE Ark to Benton Ky.

Weather radio popping off all nite, but all I have is a nice light show to the south.

BTW, its 68 degrees at 10 pm on a Friday nite in the middle of Dec.  Something is wrong.

Naw there's nothing "wrong".    In 1947 the song "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas" was released because the 4-6 winters prior had been warmer than average.  Old Bing crooned because he missed the days of his childhood when blankets of snow and ice covered the landscape before Christmas day.    

Weather trends come and go. 

1930 - 1936 were the dust bowl years of severe widespread drought.  Even if you insist on believing the 1920 Crane creek/McCloud trout fable....you can't ignore the fact that that tributary and the river it is connected to was drier than a popcorn fart for 5 consecutive years during that time, and has been almost that dry again, at least twice since then.  You think it's warmer than ever NOW?  Talk to your great grampa about it. 🤔

1968 - 1972. Totally opposite situation.    Terrible flooding and record snowfalls pretty much nationwide.  I can even remember that !   Farmers had it rough.  If you were a farmer during that period you were as poor as a church mouse.....and there were ZERO government handouts to carry you through. 

I ain't chewing and swallowing the climate science that is being fed to us now, and I refuse to listen to the ones that swallowed it and then started puking it back up.   🙂

 I just watched a guy on YouTube and he went through all the global warming predictions going back to the first one in 1914 and how they were wrong,     Al Gore’s famous climate change speech was 20 years ago you can go back and watch that and see how wrong he was.     I think this guy counted up the number of times that lower Manhattan was predicted by the “experts” to have been underwater by now and it was like 14 times.  I’m not buying it either.

"I'm dreaming of a white Christmas" was recorded/released before 1947 and wasn't written by Bing Crosby.

Turned out to be a deadly nite. Big tornado on ground for 200 miles. Looks like over 50 dead on Ark., Tn., Ky.

Was watching on local news as it rolled through Reelfoot, Mayfield. Looked as big as whole town of Mayfield.

If so then that makes my point even stronger.  🙂
