What's disturbing to me
is that the liberal biased
media will not correct
obvious climate lies
from Democrats.
They can say anything !
This lie is so bad that
Cuomo might as well
wear a T-shirt that says:
"I'm the Village Idiot".
He's now in the running
for this blog's
Climate Buffoon of the Year.
I knew immediately that
Cuomo was wrong because
I grew up in a small town
90 miles northwest of
Manhattan.
In 1960, Hurricane Donna
winds reached us,
and ripped the TV antenna
and 10 foot tower
off our two-story roof.
I was age six
at the time,
and remember that
we did not have any TV
at all until the parents
signed up for "cable TV"
for the first time !
( that early version of "cable TV"
just had the same New York City
TV stations we used to watch
using our own antenna. )
The Dumbocratic governor’s comments came after he toured flooding in upstate New York.
A Halloween storm brought winds of up to 60 mph and as much as five inches of rain in some areas.
“Anyone who questions extreme weather and climate change is just delusional at this point", Mr. Cuomo told MSNBC in an interview.
“We have seen in the state of New York what everyone has seen—we see these weather patterns that we never had before. We didn’t have hurricanes. We didn’t have super storms. We didn’t have tornadoes.”
A Google search of “New York hurricanes” showed
the state has been hit by an estimated 84 tropical or subtropical cyclones since the 17th century.
They include three in 1954 — Hurricanes Hazel, Carol and Edna — as well as the New England Hurricane of 1938, which hit Long Island as a Category 3 and left 60 dead in New York alone.
Major hurricanes are actually on the decline
-- NOAA has noted a “negative trend” since the late 1800s in hurricanes making U.S. landfall.
Other research showed GLOBAL hurricane / cyclone landfalls did not increase from 1970-2018.
