[@nsbd90now]

@@neo4102 Well, first of all, weather and climate are not the same things in this context. Sadly, even if we stopped all carbon emissions today and endured the instant collapse, chaos and death that would result from that move the planet would still continue to warm for decades, perhaps even centuries. Civilization is going to collapse because we're going to shoot right past 2C. We needed to act back in the 70s, but of course, the Republicans-- enemies of all good things-- said "NO!" Indeed, so petty were they even back then, Reagan removed the solar panels Carter had installed on the White House. And how they made fun of his sweater and thermostat set to 68F! And today? We can't even get them to wear a stupid mask during a pandemic. Things are never going to get better. Things won't even stay the same. From now on, each year will be worse than the one before. Our future is a horror. Though... having said that... life is always filled with unimagined surprises, so someone might discover a technology.

[@makkyd123]

The records being broken are for late spring/early summer. If you are saying that it's not hotter now than it was when you were growing up, thats just wrong. We have so much data showing the world is heating up, its just a fact at this point, like the sun coming up in the morning..

@@StillLivinginthewoods I believe in the scientific process and the data. Its surprising to me that people discount that in favor of their own personal experience, when the entirety of their modern existence depends on it.

The Baltimore line is so disingenuous. The absolute record for Baltimore is actually 108 degrees. While 107 degrees was hit back in 1936. They will just twist it to say 101 is a record for THIS date on the calendar exactly.

[@makkyd123]

congrats you figured out that records are time specific.

[@snoop_lion]

@makkyd123 Congrats, You have no reading comprehension. The problem is they worded it, "Baltimore set a new record for heat with 101 degrees" that implies that it's the all time record. They didn't elaborate further, which is misleading. I can't say it's intentional for certain, but the whole clip is them freaking out because summer is hot.

[@slimegoo27]

Yes, a Texan who regularly sees 108°, that’s not strange. I’m guessing you have A/C and are accustomed to it. While it may be normal for you, it’s far out of the ordinary north of the 45th parallel. You must understand, people up there are not used to it, probably don’t have A/C, and have no way to cool off their houses at night, so it just stays 100° inside and out. 100° in the northeast is insane. I was in the heat dome over the Pacific Northwest in 2021, and while 100° is pretty normal for Texas, it is not for seattle. No one has A/C, and it was absolutely miserable, there was no respite from the heat.

[@Jc-ms5vv]

Shut off that a.c. And then let us know how livable 108 is
