God is punishing you all. Know this and learn from it. Next cycle will be even worse if not, like a supervolcanic eruption.

Don't touch the water. If you can't help it, wash it off afterwards, as it contains various pollutants from feces to carcinogenic chemical waste.

Not true

>>139324829
This isn't New Orleans. Looting will be minimal if at all, as families come together to help each other like we've been seeing.

Also, no rape in red cross sections or in that big ass stadium they put everyone up in again.

No murders either.

It's weird, because given how much larger in scope this disaster is, you'd expect worse.

Maybe...maybe it's something to do with the people living there? Like... what are they? Mostly white? Hm. I'm sure theirs no connection.

What can we say about the role of climate change in the unprecedented disaster that is unfolding in Houston with Hurricane #Harvey?
There are certain climate change-related factors that we can, with great confidence, say worsened the flooding.
Sea level rise attributable to climate change (some is due to coastal subsidence due to human disturbance e.g. oil drilling) is more than half a foot over the past few decades (see http://www.insurancejournal.com/…/sou…/2017/05/31/452704.htm for a decent discussion).
That means that the storm surge was a half foot higher than it would have been just decades ago, meaning far more flooding and destruction.
In addition to that, sea surface temperatures in the region have risen about 0.5C (close to 1F) over the past few decades, from roughly 30C (86F) to 30.5C (87F), which contributed to the very warm sea surface temperatures (30.5-31 C or 87-88F). There is a simple thermodynamic relationship known as the "Clausius-Clapeyron equation (see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/…/Clausius%E2%80%93Clapeyron_relat…) that tells us there is a roughly 3% increase in average atmospheric moisture content for each 0.5C (~1F) of warming. Sea surface temperatures in the area where Harvey intensified were 0.5-1C warmer than current-day average temperatures, which translates to 1-1.5C warmer than the 'average' temperatures a few decades ago. That means 3-5% more moisture in the atmosphere.
That large amount of moisture meant the potential for much greater rainfalls and greater flooding.
The combination of coastal flooding and heavy rainfall is responsible for the devastating flooding that Houston is experiencing.

>>139325656
Not only are the surface waters of the Gulf unusually warm right now, but there is a deep layer of warm water that Harvey was able to feed upon when it intensified at near record pace as it neared the coast. Human-caused warming is penetrating down into the ocean warming not just the surface but creating deeper layers of warm water in the Gulf and elsewhere.
So Harvey was almost certainly more intense than it would have been in the absence of human- caused warming, which means stronger winds, more wind damage, and a larger storm surge
Finally, the more tenuous but potentially relevant climate factors: part of what has made Harvey such a devastating storm is the way it has stalled right near the coast, continuing to pummel Houston and surrounding regions with a seemingly endless deluge which will likely top out at nearly 4 feet of rainfall over a several days-long period before it is done.
The stalling is due to very weak prevailing winds which are failing to steer the storm off to sea, allowing it to spin around and wobble back and forth like a top with no direction. This pattern, in turn, is associated with a greatly expanded subtropical high pressure system over much of the U.S. right now, with the jet stream pushed well to the north. This pattern of subtropical expansion is predicted in model simulations of human-caused climate change.
Very persistent, nearly 'stationary' summer weather patterns of this sort, where weather anomalies (both high pressure dry hot regions and low-pressure stormy/rainy regions) stay locked in place for many days at a time, appears to be favored by human-caused climate change.
In conclusion, while we cannot say climate change "caused" hurricane Harvey we can say that it exacerbate several characteristics of the storm in a way that greatly increased the risk of damage and loss of life.

Unless you are willing to just walk away from your home you need to read the link I gave you. The day this shit stops you have to go to work and mitigate damage. The faster you can flood cut and demo the less damage you will have.

We all know niggers can't swim, looting starts after the water goes away some and everybody realizes their houses are destroyed.

16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

I remember back in 1985 when I was still relatively young... we had some torrential rains and my parents' house flooded. We lost everything. The government confiscated our property on the basis that the condemned, and we still haven't really been able to recover. That's the downside of a quasi-socialist government.

>burger logic
Actually it was due to a number of circumstances. For one, property became much more expensive in the late 80s due to rapid industrialisation, so we couldn't buy a plot of land on which to build a house similar to our other one.
We still live well, but we just don't happen to have the asset of a real house anymore. That's what I meant by not recovered.

An inch is a finger segment
A foot is a human foot
A yard is a large step
A mile is a short walk

Kitchen measurements, such as cups, teaspoons....etc are exactly what they sound like. Just standardized.

The metric system is better for calculations on paper, but the imperial system is better for taking measurements in the real world. If I want to know how many inches something is, I can just count finger segments with my knuckle. If I want to know how many yards something is, I can pace it out step by step. If I want to know roughly how many feet something is, I can just foot in front of foot, step by step.

It just takes a little remembering, but maybe that's too hard for euroweenies :)

The more feet and finger segments you have in your sack when measuring, the more they'll all average out.

>>139326513
It's not, either. U.S. liquid pint is (approximately) 473 mL, dry pint 551 mL, and Imperial (still used for beer by the Brits) is 568 mL.

It was the size of the foot of some king of England I believe.

Historically, all the different shops would have different measuring systems. The size of a "foot" at one shop was different than at another shop, because the store owners had differently sized feet. Just like every kitchen had differently sized "cups" and "teaspoons". It was standardized eventually though.

It's not an exact thing, we aren't doing laser measurements here. It's just sort of a rough calculation. So for example, my feet are 11 inches long. So if I'm measuring feet, every 12 steps I subtract 1 off my count

That's all well and good, but for larger (and more specific) measurements, the system rather falls through. You guys are literally the only country in the world anymore that still uses it instead of metrics.... and there's a good reason for that.

Anyhow at least yards makes sense because that's about 1 metere give or take.

>5128
Wrong

>3 feet in a meter
A meter is 39.37 inches. A yard is exactly 3 feet. An easy approximation to remember is that 3 meters is roughly 10 feet.

It's 5,280 (or 8 furlongs, or 1,760 yards).

>1200 square yards in an acre and
Also wrong.
An acre is 160 square rods, or 4,840 square yards.

>36 ounces in a pint
It's 16 (unless it's Imperial, which is 20, but that's not used in America).

>2200 pounds in a ton
2,000 even for a short ton, 2,240 for a long ton (rarely used outside of shipping).

>>139327275
That's wrong, though.

We can divide by three evenly without throwing away any remainder.

But honestly, my biggest problem with the metric system, and why I'll never use it, is that it was a product of the Revolutionary French government. Nothing that monstrosity produced should be allowed to survive on sheer principle (I'll burn that Tricolor if you give me the chance, too).

>>139327293

Welcome to the American system.
It would just make too much sense to use a base 10 system.
Plus this way people don't ask why clocks use a base 10 system for anything less than a second but after that it's
60secs to a min
60 mins to an hour
24 hours to a day
365 days per year
Seriously we were supposed to switch to the metric system but we just won't change partially because boomers are too used to the system and wouldnt have any idea how far a kilometer is. Bright side is some kids learn about the metric system through their science teacher and make a point to learn ok t themself because not all of us like the current system.

The ordinary ounce is a weight/mass measurement (1/16th of a pound); fluid ounce is liquid capacity (ounces are not generally used for dry capacity, but there are both dry and liquid gallons, quarts, and pints: the Imperial system merged liquid and dry capacity measurements, but that wasn't introduced until after we became independent, so we still use the pre-Imperial ones).

Ounce is a unit of weight.

>>139327988

yup, it takes a long time for groundwater to travel. there's still hours worth of groundwater waiting to travel right into the dam. it's really going to spill.

Really the point of metric isn't when converting from cm to m or from g to kg, but across measurments.
A cube with a height, lenght and widht of 10cm has a volume of exactly 1 square Metre, or 1000 square centimetre, weighs 1Kg or 1000g and fits 1 litre, or 1000 millilitre of water

A lot of people have been doing this, it's fine. He must have stolen something.

>>139327685
Which is why "English" measurements are still commonly used for engineering purposes in the U.S., even though metric is fully legal. Base-10 is fine for theoretical sciences, but for real-world applications, base-12 and base-60 are so much better.

The real reason that other countries switched to metric is not because it's actually better, but because "everyone else uses it." Britain switched to it primarily because of the EEC, and there's some hope that Brexit (if it ever actually happens) will mean at least a partial restoration of legal status for Imperial measurements. They never stopped using it informally, anyway, given that stone, pints, and miles are still in widespread (and partially legal in terms of the two last) use.

By far, the stupidest of all the metric measurements is celsius. 0 is freezing, 100 is boiling...ohh, so clever. Now lets ignore that humans live in a very very narrow band of that scale.
Its 20.5C outside today, should I bring a sweat?!? No anon, I said 20.5, not 19.35C...wear shorts!
