Where Did Your Tornadoes Go, Joe?
April 3, 2015

Three years ago, an outbreak of early season tornadoes in March prompted the usual idiots to speculate on links with “climate change”.

Joe Romm told us:

The unexpectedly fierce and fast tornado outbreak so early in the season has folks asking again about a possible link to climate change. Climatologist Dr. Kevin Trenberth emailed me that, because of climate change, “there is every expectation that the [tornado] season will move up in time. The warm winter in the US is perhaps an indicator of the nature of the changes to be expected.”

The former head of the Climate Analysis Section of the National Center for Atmospheric Research stands by his 2011 statement, “It is irresponsible not to mention climate change in stories that presume to say something about why all these storms and tornadoes are happening.”

And the reality?

Since the start of full Doppler coverage, there has been no trend in early season tornadoes. Both of the last two years have been below the average of 138 (shown in blue), and provisional data, so far this year, indicates a record low number.

None of this will stop Romm, Trenberth and the rest blaming the next tornado outbreak on climate change.
