and hopefully we do stabilize the population at 10 billion by 2050, 10 billion seems to be the carrying capacity of our planet for humans.

This was pretty amazing to witness, one of these tornadoes touched down right in my town and we lost power for 3 hours. Long Island had never had a tornado in November before (records go back to 1950) and never more than 3 in one day at any point in the year before this. Climate change related (much warmer SST than normal). The animals were hightailing it out of here and so were people lol (there was a long line of cars jamming the roads, which was puzzling for a Saturday afternoon.)

Richard Branson has a way of doing it by filling skyscrapers with solar panels (doing it to the Empire State Building first) and then people would be able to use those to recharge their cars for free.

lunar eclipse reaches maximum around 4:07 am my time Friday morning, 97% so very close to total (actually better in some ways since more easily visible and yet still red.)

Govt aint going to do shit, it's people like Musk who will finally end our dependence on fossil fuels, his new assembly line will build a new EV every 10 hours Elon Musk believes he can radically change how cars are put together with Tesla's Giga Press / Twitter

uhm wtf this is the last time I'm voting in a national election if a progressive isn't running https://twitter.com/search?q="Gulf of Mexico"&src=trend_click&pt=1460993698221678597&vertical=trends https://twitter.com/ReutersScience/status/1460993698221678597

oh joy I just heard Biden is investigating the American Petroleum Institute for price fixing, this is awesome sue them to hell just like drug companies who overprice drugs.

NYC is about to pass a gas free law so all new structures and renovations MUST be made free from fossil fuels! This is so much better than the weaksauce that was COP26

lowest temp is an hour after sunrise

had another confirmed tornado in the Hamptons (Hampton Bays) wtf lol now thats 7 tornadoes on Long Island? all EF0 though besides the one EF1

why were they all so weak though (besides the 1)....my prediction is that within 10 years we will see a similar outbreak except next time they will be 2s and 3s and maybe even a 4 for our interior region

I have a feeling within the next decade we'll have a 2011 type outbreak with multiple strong F2 and F3 tornadoes and maybe even an F4 somewhere in our region. Forgot the E but that takes too much effort to type.

I remember that was a really windy and stormy month, what a crazy fall that was, the earliest leaf drop that ever happened as far as I remember. I dont remember the July outbreak either, looks like that year had a lot of similarities to 1998 with all the severe wx outbreaks

Yep with higher education rates the birth rate drops....based on UN estimates population will stabilize around 10 billion by 2050

what about 1989?

I'm going to be in the Poconos for Thanksgiving so I need to know days in advance what the weather will be like,.

edit- how many outbreaks did we have in 1989? Based on what I've found there were at least 3- one in July and 2 in November? wow! Sort of like 1998 when we had a major outbreak in May and another one in September.... The one in July 1989 (which I dont even remember) had an F4 in CT?! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Northeastern_United_States_tornado_outbreak#Long_Island Connecticut tornado family An hour after the previous event caused destruction in Upstate New York, a new tornado family began producing significant damage in the adjacent state of Connecticut. The first tornado, which may have been three separate tornadoes, started its path of destruction in Cornwall, leveling a virgin forest known as Cathedral Pines. At the nearby Mohawk Mountain Ski Area, every ski lift was destroyed, with some lift chairs found miles away.[5] The tornado continued south-southeast through Milton, leveling hundreds more trees, and destroyed the village of Bantam before dissipating.[1] Strong downburst winds continued to cause damage and level trees after this tornado lifted: it was during this period between tornadoes that a 12-year-old girl was killed by falling trees in Black Rock State Park.[4][6] Soon afterwards, another tornado touched down in Watertown, passing through Oakville and northern Waterbury, damaging or destroying 150 homes.[1] The Hamden tornado was by far the most destructive tornado of this family, and possibly the most damaging of the entire outbreak. It touched down at 5:38 pm near the Wilbur Cross Parkway.[7][8] Industrial cranes and cars were tossed through the air, and rows of houses, as well as an industrial park, were flattened.[9] The tornado lifted just a few minutes later at 5:45.[7] The damage path was only five miles long, stopping just short of the city of New Haven, but it damaged or destroyed almost 400 structures in its path.[1] The storm was so intense at this point that an 80 mph (130 km/h) wind gust was measured in downtown New Haven after the tornado dissipated.[6] About the same time, a tornado struck the area between Carmel and Brewster, New York, unroofing a condominium complex. Five people were injured.[2] Long Island The storms continued to produce damage after crossing onto Long Island. An F2 tornado caused significant damage in the town of East Moriches. A man was thrown with his trailer across an airfield; he escaped the destroyed trailer with only minor injuries.[6] The tornado was accompanied by 2.5 inch (6.4 cm) hail. Other areas further east also saw straight-line wind damage and hail up to an inch across.[4]

a classic article about a classic severe weather outbreak https://www.nytimes.com/1989/11/21/nyregion/sudden-winds-reach-100-mph-as-storm-sweeps-new-york-region.html A severe line of thunderstorms with damaging winds swept through the New York metropolitan area last night, toppling trees, blowing out windows, disrupting some electrical service and causing scattered subway and traffic delays, officials said. The wind and rain blew in from the northwest traveling at a speed of 50 miles per hour, with gusts of up to 100 m.p.h. Very cold air from the northwest ran into warmer air over the region, touching off the storms and high winds. The National Weather Service clocked gusts of up to 58 m.p.h. in Central Park, 76 m.p.h. at La Guardia Airport and 85 m.p.h. in Wayne, N.J. At Newark Airport, an empty Continental Boeing 727, was blown up against a fuel truck and a baggage truck by a gust of wind. Port Authority police said no one was injured. Crane Topples Over

so this is a storm thats supposed to happen before Thanksgiving or the day after?

November 1989 just in terms of severe weather damage. Here's what I remember from having a fire drill that day and going outside We went out into the football field, but had huge problems getting the doors open because the winds were pushing so hard against it. Got outside and saw these strange green clouds hanging from the sky in weird shapes, festoons and pointy triangular shapes with the vertices of the triangles pointed downward, many of them spinning. First time I ever saw that. And it was like that all afternoon and most of the leaves on the trees came down on that day. The earliest I've ever seen them come down. I should say the Labor Day 1998 outbreak is right up there too- we had a F2 tornado hit Lynbrook and lots of damage and destruction around!

Goes along with my thinking, overpopulation is one of the largest problems humans face and we need to keep it at 10 billion or under https://www.livescience.com/16493-people-planet-earth-support.html

Shocked that Shirley tornado wasn't at least an EF2. Was it stronger than the others because two tornadoes combined to produce that one? And are EF2 and F2 tornadoes equivalent....in other words was the 1998 Labor Day Lynbrook F2 tornado about as strong as an EF2 tornado would be today?

whats the difference between asperatus and mammatus? I thought mammatus were tornado clouds? I remember seeing them in November 1989...... we were at high school and were told to go outside onto the football field and I saw clouds that hung down like sacs from the sky, they looked like they were spinning too...multiple spinning vortices in the sky and the wind was blowing so hard we could barely open the door

Chris how does this compare to the Labor Day 1998 F2 tornado in Lynbrook? What towns did that pass over and is there a map of its path? Was that the strongest tornado that ever hit Long Island?
