Storm-Steering Jet Stream Could Shift Poleward in 40 Years
Changes in the position of the fast-moving air current could disrupt weather patterns. The consequences could be dramatic: shifts in rainfall patterns across the midlatitudes and an increase in droughts, heat waves, floods and other extreme weather events in Europe and the eastern U.S.- lol come on, that's like a Fox News chart, a 2 degrees swing went from frozen arctic wasteland to the fiery depths of hell_niko
- yes _niko because 2 degrees is an average, so in some places could go +10 and in other -5 or whatever
think california having a -5*C winter lolgrafician - think NYC having a 45*C summergrafician
- < it's right there on this fucking chart, but only a 1 degree of difference is already very bad, so 2 degrees will be catastrophic lolgrafician
- i suggest both of you read the indicators on that chart, then when you see the word "DIFFERENCE" think about that its a +- deviation from the 30 year average.sted
- so after the next 90 years it will be +6,
what is a lot. for the dumb:
-+2 is bad but
+10 turns things into a desert fast
-5 same thing just is syberiasted - there is no +- 2 sted! it's only 2+ or more
the goals worldwide were to stop at 1.5, but it looks like we'll pass at least 2.5 by 2050 at this rategrafician - and it was all known since the '70s and nobody did nothing, we're just a frog in boiling water now...grafician

Provisional data from the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics, released early Wednesday, suggest the homicide rate for the United States rose 30% between 2019 and 2020. It is the highest increase recorded in modern history -- and confirms through public health data a rise in homicides that so far had been identified only through crime statistics.

A record 4.3 million people quit their jobs in August, evidence of the considerable leverage workers have in today's economy.
About 2.9% of the workforce quit in August, up from 2.7% in July, according to the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) report, released Tuesday. That marks the highest quit rate since the report began in 2000.
The number of workers who quit rose by 242,000 from July. Quits rose in accommodation and food services, wholesale trade and state and local government education.
Companies continue to grapple with a serious worker shortage. Job openings remained very high at the end of August at 10.4 million, the JOLTS report showed. However, that marks a decline of 659,000 from the end of July.
