By the way, John, that's the best article I've read in a long time

The planet would be FAR better off if humanity ceased to exist. That's another way of putting it and I agree

Manchin aint going to support this. Did you see what you said today? I dont know about Manchin but I am 99.99% sure Sinema is going to be primaried no one likes her, not even the people who voted for her.

Looks like some school districts have closed schools in NJ, we never used to see this for rainstorms, I guess they are being more weather aware than the media is

They should have named that storm in 1991, it actually mars the records and TC count that they did not. With the current storm, why does it evolve into a TC after it leaves instead of doing it here where the waters are warmer?

I thought with noreasters the highest winds are supposed to be further away from the center and much wider in scope? With a low in that position, one would expect the highest winds to be further west by about 100 miles or so.

more steady rains since 2:30 and it's gotten really windy too

Just had another one of these short rainbursts!

Might have gotten a part of that it rained really hard here for 15 min

Just rained really hard here from about 1 am to 1: 15

fall version of the late February 2010 snowicane

Reminds me of an October version of the Snowicane in late February 2010

wow I'm going to turn my fans on in the middle of the night

oh too bad I was hoping it wouldn't happen until November.... that would something going into the climate change conference.

it makes me wonder why it's being underestimated..... we just had Ida in September, everyone should be on high alert for dangerous flooding and the media should be all over this, why aren't they?

How did Caribou get a freeze in this nearly tropical airmass and with all this cloudiness?

I see we have wild parrots on long island! a whole flock of them....I wonder how they got here and if they spend the winter here?

even the city is gusting to 50 and near 40 in the Poconos

also when it rises rapidly after a tanking

I got news for you, if this was in the middle of winter it would still be rain regardless of track- not enough cold air around. The only difference is in winter it would be 40 and rain.

https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/19/politics/climate-change-manchin-what-matters/index.html It wouldn't be the first time he's committed violence on legislation to address climate change. Back in 2010, when he won as a Democrat in a red state in a very red year, Manchin did it by running an ad in which he literally fired a bullet into climate change legislation. That legislation, the last major attempt to enact climate change legislation, did fail. Eleven years later, the effects of the climate crisis are all the more apparent and frightening but Manchin is still out to get climate change legislation he thinks will hurt his state. It could also hurt him. His family's wealth is directly tied to coal. https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/19/politics/climate-change-manchin-what-matters/index.html Years later, he's a man specifically made for this moment. The Democrat representing a red state, he's got complete power over legislation. The chairman of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee only amplifies his importance on energy and climate issues. The current proposal he killed would have paid utilities for moving more quickly away from fossil fuels. Manchin opposes moving more quickly away from fossil fuels since he says the US is already moving away from fossil fuels. He's right. But it's not happening fast enough. Time is running out. Experts are convinced the window is closing for the US and other countries to address climate change, which is already wreaking havoc on the weather and supercharging natural disasters, before the effects are catastrophic. RELATED: Coal-fired power is on the rise in America for the first time since 2014 One new study published in Nature suggests that to in order to avoid catastrophic consequences, most of the world's remaining fossil fuels should remain in the ground. I've been trying to see this from Manchin's perspective. He's like a politician from another time -- when there were Democrats representing red states. He's sticking up for the energy source of another time -- when coal was king. He doesn't see the need for the government to hasten the demise of coal since coal's demise is here. "The transition's already happening," Manchin told CNN, although he would not comment on a story about coal and West Virginia. "So I'm not going to sit back and let anyone accelerate whatever the market's changes are doing." West Virginians are feeling the effects of climate change and the energy markets. Read this excellent story from CNN's Ella Nilsen about the energy bills of West Virginians. They could save money by retiring more coal plants. Read the New York Times' recent report on floods and other disasters in West Virginia.

the interesting thing about 1983 is that was an early warning shot about summers to come with its rainy hot humid summer.
