China has lots of other issues, so even if it widens its lead on energy, those other issues could still adversely affect China. Authoritarian approaches tend to be rigid and rigidity ultimately undermines innovation. It also has an aging population, which will constrain its labor market growth.

Looks like the models have the bigger heat a hair inland as I see lots of southerly winds next week. It's also not that hot, some days are not hot at all. Good news for big heat haters.

light rain here once again .01. 68.6 degrees

We’ll see… The AO is going negative for the next week.

They look like one nice set of perky man boobies waiting to strike!

The convection was much more limited earlier and also disorganized. I would’ve kept at 40%, but there’s a ribbon of higher shear to the north too that could disrupt things.

Finished with 3.93” and a high of 69.8 I honestly cannot remember the last August day that didn’t break 70 here

Think you need to trim back those edibles.

I hear you there. I don't think politics will solve it. It is a humanity issue. I don't care for politics one way or the other. I just want to live my life, study infectious disease and climate change, and keep my family happy. I would like to think that left, right, center, would all agree that we need to change but nobody will ever agree in the solution. Just like I mentioned bioheat must be a major part for our area. As for the weather, we are in the doldrums right now of boring weather. Wake up, smoke, go to bed, smoke, comfortable temperatures but this has been a tough week of weather. Hoping we push this $hit out of here.

Sheesh.

Checks in… …checks out

Beautiful 76 an sunny out right now. Been a while with weather like this. Last summer we had a lot of days like this thrown in between the heat. Feels great!

What he said.

JB already foretold this a couple hours ago. He didn't need all those fancy graphics though, just knowing hurricanes was enough for The Maestro. I've got a good feeling, like last year I'm gonna go big on the snow totals contest.

I mean there is an entire forum for climate change, so we could go there.

This run shows "Gabrielle" and "Humberto" on ket at the very end of the GIF

Trimming the fat off the bone

Got a little rain - huh

Just like any organization the reorganization hurts. Cutting fat off the bone is not easy

We've had a hostile Arctic this late Spring/Summer so far It's been pretty amazing to not break 2012's arctic ice melt record for 13 years now. Since 2012, here are the analogs to pattern: Following Winter: It seems to "snap back" in the Winter, with -AO

I think it's been quite cordial back and forth

nice to see la-la land firing up some big 'uns. otherwise it's Stein and HHH talk
