I showed you global ACE plot. ACE nothing to do with increase in CO2. Besides, I have critiqued climate models. If you form more storms from the feedback mechanism of 'warmer water = more storms", it ends up cooling the Earth. Convection is a cooling process.

The only way to warm the planet with more convection in a climate model related to CO2 is develop an upper-tropospheric hot spot. None is observed. Thus, the models are wrong. Using models that are consistently wrong as a scientific basis is utter stupidity. This has nothing to do with CO2, which doesn't absorb infrared radiation above 0C. If CO2 had any indirect impact via a warming Arctic, then explain the 30-year cooling trend in the Arctic from 1945-1975, and 30-year cooling trend in Antarctica from 1980-2010-ish.

Thanks for the sixth grade science lesson. Everything with Harvey (wind, rain-fall rate, central pressure) has been easily surpassed in the last 200 years. None of those variables are related to any variations in CO2 or the boreal warming of the past 30-years. What made Harvey unique is the slow movement. Harvey didn't move, because of an upper-level trough over the eastern United States.

In a response to tonto, which you never gave, I explained the trapped, anomalous cold air mass over Greenland finally plunged into the eastern U.S. This trough kept Harvey from going inland. So, blame it on the anomalously cold air mass over the eastern U.S., which was present in August due to it being anomalously cold over Greenland all summer. This trough enhanced the Rossby wave pattern over the Pacific jet exit region (ridging in the Pacific NW), and the Rossby wave pattern garners its energy from the jet stream (meridional temperature gradients). With an Arctic that was anomalously cold all summer, the jet was strong and so were the Rossy patterns.

It's really the opposite of what would be expected from anthropogenic global warming, but go ahead and spew/read/copy-n-paste your baseless, pseudo-scientific drivel.

Kenneth this is a real time example of a true disaster manifested by false egos, shear stupidity and absolute hatred.
This absolutely unacceptable response to the threat of Hurricane Harvey is due to Mayor Turner’s intense hatred for President Trump and the republicans. Turner’s hands are now covered in the blood of his own city’s residents, all in the name of taking an utterly irresponsible jab at the President of the United States via Twitter. While it is quite certain that his legacy is now completely destroyed, many believe that Mayor Turner should and could be held legally culpable for his negligence.
