"In all likelihood, it would mean the end of meaningful global #climateaction at this critical juncture. The fate of our planet quite literally hangs in the balance. It’s something for all Americans to think about as they prepare for the pivotal 2024 election." --

"#Climatescientists have dealt with #climatetrolls, skeptics, and deniers for decades now; I think it’s an extension of that.

Now, some of that is, I think, just related to the fact that we’re in an election year. The difference is, in the past the harassment was over in a fringe element. In this last episode, it was a bit more mainstream. That’s concerning."

The last day of October sees some rain, but not enough to make up for our deficit. Next week, more rain possible through Election Day. Also, very warm again into early November.

Should not be a problem for Trick Or Treating or Thursday night football games in our area.
