Is Florida now unsurvivable because it's an oven due to climate change? It's 11:48 am on May 30th and the heat index in SoFla is 100. I can see it going up to over 130 by July.

I fished in, swam in and surfed in the ocean all fall, winter and spring. Ocean temperatures were well below average as indicated by NOAA, local surf and weather forecasts, in addition to empirical knowledge, fish, wildlife and wind patterns.

The snook were late to not arriving at all even at the very end of the season (June 1st) because water temperatures were too cold for the snook.

The pompano ran late into spring when their run typically ends in late February or early March as pompano prefer cooler water.

Why do Democrats call any Republican "Magats", like they are subhuman?

We have had a north flow even into late May. Which both makes the weather cooler while also being a result of cooler weather. It blew NE yesterday when our wind pattern always switches to the SSE in early spring and stays that way through September. A north wind in May is an anomaly, but one of cold weather not warm.

We’ve had a below average year all year up until May.

As the alarmists would say ‘that’s weather, not climate’.

Is it true that people who are possessed by demons cannot see them until the demon is cast out? What is the reason for this?

Now all of a sudden it’s ’climate Change’.

So it would be very easy to claim ‘Florida is cooling’ given your metric. Because it was, all fall. winter and spring. Both land and sea temperatures were significantly below average.

You overlooked nearly an entire year of cooler temperatures in Florida in favor of a singular month to make a claim.

Why doesn’t the UK change their flag?

We had an El Niño all fall and winter. Florida’s temps have been well below average all year up until just recently.

South Florida is much closer to the Gulfstream than the rest of Florida which can cause local variations in weather that are distinct from the rest of the state.

We are switching to an El Niño cycle. Cooler in the Pacific and hotter in the Atlantic.

What's an underrated/unknown novel or series that you think deserves more attention?

It may well be a hotter than normal summer in the Atlantic. But the Pacific will be cooler. You don’t get to pick and choose abnormal trends that suit your belief set while ignoring all others that don’t support it.

If you cherry pick the weather you can create whatever narrative you want.

Ocean temps have been 2–3 F cooler on average- which is far more significant than a 2–3 change in air temperature due to it’s specific heat.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?
