Yeah, another spurious correlation. Started with earthquakes, such clouds and weather predict earthquakes. Now it's all over the place. The key is a lack of hard mechanism. Such as carbon warming.

@cambridgeport90 Are you the bear?
@cambridgeport90 Dang, Americans and their football.
@stormlighttech@mastodon.technology @cambridgeport90 What are we talking about? "I don't get it"
@cambridgeport90 They're the dang *North* Fae. I'm Canadian. I know what I'm talking about. They let me see the wolves coming down the Humber Valley, but seeing polar bears would be a bit much.
@cambridgeport90 Since I'm projecting the end of our warming cycle and a coming micro ice age, the North Fae will be able to come down to Toronto, riding their very healthy polar bears.
@cambridgeport90 Dark, cynical humour is bad habit. I was inspired by your bio to write mine, so you bring to mind Luna from Harry Potter. That's why I don't use my 'mountain of sarcasm' sigil any more, I don't write it. Watch 'Love by the square foot' on Netflix. It's pure humour.
@cambridgeport90 Have a little sign to pop up "I don't get it" :)
@Galdrakinn Get the big Lindt one. We always had to start Nov. 1. :)
@peterdrake They all do that. :)
@cambridgeport90 Ha, not something you can learn. I used to mark my posts /\ -- the mountain of sarcasm. :)
@khird The main thing the lapse rate covers is getting heat energy from the surface of the earth to the very upper atmosphere. This is 100% convection according to physics. Then the heat energy is radiated out, and Earth acts like a heat bulb. The controversy is in the predominant mechanism of moving heat energy in the atmosphere. No split is allowed -- only one is the winner.
Descended from Unix freaks, I evolved to Linux. Some people might consider me old at 60+, but I'm suing the world to get my age down to 30.
I have a blog https://ontario-geofish.blogspot.com/
and it is read by 8 people. My formal education is in an extinct branch of science called geophysics. Since there was no money in it, I went to engineering. I've done tunnels, radwaste thingies, etc.
