Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious El Niño! It’s astonishing to see this, even though we saw it coming months ago. White = 10°F + above normal in the El Niño regions. Its immense! In the air, a regional warming of 10° is no big deal. But in the ocean it’s immense! Think about how hard it is/ how long it takes to cool/ heat your pool. Now multiply that by a trillion. Warming like this truly has no precedent in the historical record, and thus the impacts are unprecedented. From an almost non-existent Atlantic #hurricane season to a super-charged Pacific season. And coming this winter a supercharged subtropical jet stream with heavy rain storms and severe weather across the US South - #Florida, the Gulf Coast and probably flooding rains in California. And those are just the obvious impacts. Stay tuned! #elniño #elnino

@vijay.shah.india These scientists are also expert in lying, how do they put the matter of the damaged ozone layer on others. El Niño (Godzilla) only for misguided, GLOBAL WARMING PRODUSED BY THE DAMAGED OZONE LAYER ONLY. Think about who is damaging the ozone layer. Inform later. (The ozone layer is not recovering.) SAVE OUR BEATIFUL EARTH (PLANET).
