  View: U.S. Should Prepare to Face More Hurricanes

September 11, 2017 by Editorial

SNIPPET:

By The Editors (Bloomberg View) — Beyond inflicting epic destruction and suffering, Hurricanes Harvey and Irma have brought the U.S. face to face with the catastrophic flood dangers posed by climate change.

Fed by deeply warmed ocean waters, the storms turned violent as climate-change models have predicted. Higher sea levels have intensified flooding.


Yet if history is a guide, no matter how great the losses, Harvey and Irma will not dampen Americans’ enthusiasm for living and working along coastlines vulnerable to hurricanes. The cycle of building, flooding, rebuilding — and then ignoring the problem — plays out repeatedly in every region that experiences big storms. And the costs just keep rising.

The U.S. needs to rethink the way it prepares for and responds to great storms. This will require measuring the risks better, pricing them more realistically, and getting states, local governments and property owners to bear their share.

Agelbert NOTE: Let us hope that, along the way to pricing the costs, they do not forget to assign the appropriate LIABILITY to the Fossil Fuel Industry for degrading the biosphere and destabilizing our climate.

"How many times will we rebuild Florida’s cities, Houston, coastal New Jersey, New Orleans and other population centers ravaged by storms lethally intensified by global warming? At what point, surveying the devastation and knowing more is inevitable, will we walk away, leaving behind vast coastal dead zones? Will we retreat even further into magical thinking to cope with the fury we have unleashed from the natural world? Or will we respond rationally and radically alter our relationship to this earth that gives us life?"

How many times will Hedges repeat his "sinners-in-the-hands-of-an-angry-god" pronouncements, ravaging readers with his storms of doom and gloom? At what point will he walk away from behind his lectern, leaving behind a verbosity that all too often leads to little more than the dead end of despair? Will he retreat even further into an intellectual career of magically thinking his mere verbiage makes a difference to people who, unlike him, struggle on the ground with issues of survival such that we don't have time to listen to, much less take seriously, his self-important rant? Or will he - and other like members of the professional class - radically alter their own paid positions in relation to a capitalist social system which turns the earth into trash while they live atop the heap, preaching to others beneath them on the errors of our ways?

How many times will we keep turning to hot air talking heads rather than getting to work with others, on the ground, to organize revolutionary movements to truly take on the hot air of the earth and all the polluted causes and effects of this sick social system? At what point will we turn our backs on the chattering class, who traffic in vain, self-serving commentary on what others live far more harshly than they, and walk away from their cultured dead zones to reclaim our own agency in challenging and changing the relations of power by which authorities speak to us and for us but never with us? Will we retreat even further into our assigned roles as mere spectators to our own demise, magically thinking others, presumably more knowledgeable and capable than us, mean what they say when they profess their outrage over social conditions which confer upon them the privilege of such professionalism? Or will we radically alter our subject status and assume our own words and deeds to still risk, even against the odds at this late hour, remaking this world in the earth's image, among all our relations, as an egalitarian ecology of life?

We Need a Super Storm of Caring Folks to Fight Against Systemic Injustice

By Dr. Jason von Meding and Heidi Harmon

SNIPPET:

Naomi Klein, talking about climate change, argues that, "Talking honestly about what is fueling this era of serial disasters—even while they're playing out in real time—isn't disrespectful to the people on the front lines. In fact, it is the only way to truly honor their losses, and our last hope for preventing a future littered with countless more victims."

Honest discourse is urgently required. However, a narrow focus on climate change may actually obscure a deeper political malaise that keeps the most marginalized in society perpetually at risk.

U.S. Democracy —A Political Disaster

In the U.S., an entrenched two party system has long embraced neoliberal policies as beyond reproach. These policies are demonstrably devastating for the most marginalized in society.

Whether regarding health care, immigration or the minimum wage, both parties have kept the downtrodden in servitude for decades. The Democratic Party claim incremental change—but at this stage, is less bad really good enough?

In 2016, Bernie Sanders threatened to turn the system on its head. The establishment colluded to make sure that this didn't happen. In recent weeks, he has been widely smeared for daring to run against Hillary Clinton in the primaries. This is how the establishment protects itself—Ralph Nader's character assassination is a prime example.

Irma’s highest winds and heaviest rains

Here are peak wind gusts and top rainfall totals from Irma observed across the Southeast U.S., as reported by the NOAA/NWS Weather Prediction Center in its final statement on Irma as a post-tropical cyclone, issued at 5 pm EDT Monday. Many of these readings are unverified, so we’ll have to wait for more in-depth analysis to find out which of Irma’s peak rain and wind reports make it into the final record.

Heaviest total rainfall from Irma in each affected state

Florida:  15.91” (Ft. Pierce/St. Lucie County Intl. Airport)
Georgia:  10.12” (St. Marys River, 5 mi SSE of Kingsland)
South Carolina:  8.65” (5 mi WNW of Charleston)
North Carolina:  6.05” (Busick)
Alabama:  4.70” (West Point)
Mississippi:  1.21” (8.2 mi SE of Abbeville)

Strongest wind gust from Irma in each affected state

Florida:  142 mph (2 mi ENE of Naples)
South Carolina:  76 mph (6 mi E of Parris Island)
Georgia:  70 mph (Fort Pulaski)
Tennessee:  66 mph (Clingmans Dome Tower)
North Carolina:  56 mph (2 mi WNW of Highlands)
Alabama:  45 mph (Troy)

Transas survival craft simulator eliminates drill risks

Transas has introduced a new Survival Craft Simulator (SCS) to prepare crew for the multitude of possible scenarios that can occur during lifeboat drills, aiming to address one of the most notorious sources of accidents in shipping without exposing personnel to physical danger.

Effective survival craft training is essential to prepare crew for a disaster at sea but practical lifeboat drills have a troubling track record for causing fatalities. By shifting some elements of training to a simulated environment, the risks are minimized and the crew can focus on the procedures that will increase safety when operating the real lifeboat equipment in an emergency.

IMO expert investigations have focused mainly on the complex quick-release hooks that typically suspend enclosed lifeboats from their davits, which are designed to hold tons of mass securely for years at a time and then come free quickly when the lifeboat is lowered. The Maritime Safety Committee expects new guidelines to enter into force on 1 January 2020, addressing longstanding issues including the need for uniform and documented standards for hook servicing.

However, a failure to follow correct procedures and lack of proper training have also been cited as contributory factors in incidents. The Transas Survival Craft Simulator allows such training to be conducted either at a training centre or on-board in a benign environment, allowing trainees to learn essential procedures, such as the preparation of survival craft, its launch and boarding, but without the risk.

At the heart of the new simulator is a highly detailed virtual model of a totally enclosed davit-launched, self-righting lifeboat. It is supported by a functional model to simulate the hook-release gear, wire lashings and gripes, and for boat securing onto a davit. Instruction on using the release handle, a safety pin, and hydrostatic interlock level can be delivered either virtually or with a physical device connected to the simulator.

“No one doubts the importance of effective survival craft training,” said Frank Coles, Transas Chief Executive Officer. “Guidance issued by insurers reaffirms that crew should be capable of operating lifeboat systems and understanding the mechanics and procedures, but training itself cannot be the source of risk. The majority of the maritime industry stakeholders still have some way to go to fully embrace the use of simulation to enhance and improve competency in shipboard operations. This tool is further evidence of that competence can be raised safely and efficiently without endangering lives. The time for platitudes is over; resources and recurrent training save lives and enhance safety.”

Survival Craft Simulator was created to function under Transas Academy, the seafarer competency development component of THESIS. In the future, this oversight will enable data collected during exercises to feed into and inform other aspects of vessel and fleet operation.

Dangerous PTC 15 headed for Eastern Caribbean; Hurricane Jose Headed Towards New England
Above:  MODIS view of Potential Tropical Cyclone 15 on Saturday morning, September 16, 2017. Image credit: NASA.

Dr. Jeff Masters  ·  September 16, 2017, 11:46 AM EDT

SNIPPET:

A strong tropical wave located at 11 am EDT Saturday about 755 miles east of the Lesser Antilles Islands was headed west at about 22 mph, and was designated Potential Tropical Cyclone 15 (PTC 15, formerly 96L) by NHC. Tropical storm watches were hoisted for the islands of St. Lucia, Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Dominica, and PTC 15 has the potential to be a hurricane by the time it passes through the Lesser Antilles Islands on Tuesday morning. In their 8 am EDT Saturday Tropical Weather Outlook, NHC gave PTC 15 2-day and 5-day odds of development of 90%.

PTC 15 had very favorable conditions for development on Saturday morning. Wind shear was light, 5 - 10 knots, SSTs were a very warm 29 – 29.5°C (84 - 85°F), and relative humidity at mid-levels of the atmosphere (as analyzed by the 12Z Saturday run of the SHIPS model) was moderately moist--about 60%. Satellite loops showed that PTC 15 had a good deal of spin, and heavy thunderstorm activity was steadily increasing and growing more organized, with several curved low-level spiral bands forming. There was no obvious surface circulation center, but is likely to form by Saturday evening. The first hurricane hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate PTC 15 on Sunday afternoon.

More very strange weather: Hurricane winds of nearly 100mph kills 3 in Germany as Storm Sebastian heads south!

At least three people have been killed in a large windstorm that swept across Germany. Hurricane-force winds downed trees and toppled scaffolding, with officials warning residents to stay at home. Windstorm Sebastian wreaked havoc across northern and northwestern Germany on Wednesday, killing three people and causing power outages.

Wind gusts of up to 150 kilometres (93 miles) per hour were recorded in the northern Harz mountain range, according to the German weather service (DWD).

The North Sea saw gusts of up to 140 kilometres per hour, as residents in northern Germany battled driving downpours.
Three people have been killed as a result of the storm.

A man in a wheelchair died after falling into the Elbe River in the northern city of Hamburg, local firefighters said.

Witnesses saw the man fall into the water where he later drowned despite a rescue effort that included a boat, divers and a helicopter.

Also in Hamburg, a pedestrian died after being hit by scaffolding that fell from the seventh floor of a building, police said.

The man later succumbed to his injuries after being taken to a hospital.
And in the western German spa town of Brilon, a 53-year-old man was killed after he was crushed by a falling tree.

A 20-meter (65-foot) spruce tree fell on the man while he was working in the forest, local police said. Falling trees also caused train delays in the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, while the wind caused significant damage to cars and buildings.

The DWD expects the storm to continue battering eastern Germany into the night, with parts of southern Germany expecting hurricane-force winds as well.


Several regions have warned residents to stay at home while emergency services attempt to clear the roads of fallen branches and repair power outages.

Depicting the Strength of Irma's Winds with the RTMA 





Sep 15, 2017

This data visualization from NOAA's Visualization Laboratory shows the maximum wind gusts from Hurricane Irma from September 7 to September 10, 2017. Note how the strongest wind gusts are on the north side of the storm track (the faint dotted line). According to the NOAA's National Hurricane Center, Irma's maximum sustained winds ranged from 110 (on 9/10) to near 180 (on 9/7) miles per hour during this period.

This graphic was created with data from the RTMA, or Real-Time Mesoscale Analysis model, which uses surface observation data to create a highly accurate gridded analysis of past weather conditions. The data covers only the Continental United States and coastal areas, so areas of the storm further to the south and east, where Irma was at maximum intensity, are not visible. To see satellite imagery of Irma, visit our image gallery. For information about the 2017 Hurricane Season thus far, check out our Hurricane Tracker.

Sand Disturbed by the Passing of Hurricane Irma



Sep 13, 2017

Hurricane Irma didn't just impact land. As seen in these before-and-after true-color images captured by the VIIRS instrument on the NOAA/NASA Suomi NPP satellite September 7, 2017 (top) and September 11 (bottom), the storm altered the distribution of sand around the coast of Florida. The light blue color shows sediment suspended in the water, kicked up by the intensity of the storm. According to the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, damage to natural resources in the region could be significant.

Although true-color images like this may appear to be photographs of Earth, they aren't. They are created by combining data from the three color channels on the VIIRS instrument sensitive to the red, green and blue (or RGB) wavelengths of light into one composite image. In addition, data from several other channels are often also included to cancel out or correct atmospheric interference that may blur parts of the image.

Time lapse global temperature increase by NOAA:


Jan 17, 2017

2016 Officially Warmest Year on Record

2016 is officially the new warmest year on record, edging out previous record holder 2015 by 0.07°F, according to NOAA. It is the third year in a row that global average surface temperature set a new record, and the fifth time the record has been broken since the start of the twenty-first century.

This animation shows annual temperatures each year since 1880 compared to the twentieth-century average, ending with record-warm 2016. Because of global warming due to increasing greenhouse gases, the maps from the late 1800s and the early 1900s are dominated by shades of blue, indicating temperatures were up to 3°C (5.4°F) cooler than the twentieth-century average.

By the 1980s, the maps take on shades of yellow, with a few large cooler-than-average spots shifting around from year to year. By the 2000s, most of the planet is orange and red—up to 3°C (5.4°F) warmer than the long-term average, with only a few isolated cool spots from year to year.

Climate experts have long known that global warming due to increasing greenhouse gases won’t necessarily mean that each year on Earth will be warmer than the last. Even as the planet warms over the long-term, natural variability will continue to make some years warmer or cooler than their nearest neighbors. So the string of three record-breaking years in a row is unlikely to continue in 2017, especially because La Niña—the cool phase of the major natural climate pattern “ENSO”—developed in late 2016 and continued into early 2017.

For more stats and information on global climate in 2016, read the summary from the National Centers for Environmental Information.

About these maps

The official NOAA global surface temperature product does not interpolate over the Arctic, the Antarctic, or parts of Africa where there are no observations. In an interpolation, a computer algorithm estimates some missing values using statistical inferences. This animation is based on an interpolation of the official NOAA global temperature monitoring data set (the Merged Land and Ocean Surface Temperature data). In this case, we’ve interpolated across some of the missing data areas to minimize the visual distraction that results from the areas of missing data jumping around from map to map over time. The official maps are available from the NCEI website.
