The next new thing they want you to be intensely AFRAID of
It always has to be something INVISIBLE
Global cooling - global warming - viruses - the plandemic - Disease X - monkeypox - white supremaceh - the death of our democraceh - ozone hole - ice caps melting - overpopulation - racism - Trump's temperament - right-wing extremism - etc. - etc.
Now it's SPACE WEATHER FFS
When you can't SEE it, you can't control it. So that means THEY CAN CONTROL YOUR FEAR RESPONSE TO IT. Unless you see this pattern.
Anyone who can't see this pattern is mindwarped and doomed to live in fear
I still can't get over the term Atmospheric River!
Dafooq? First time I saw that I knew it was all a line of BS as you described.
And sheeple lap it up! It's almost like they feel smarter if they use the term because it's so novel. To your point, they have no idea they are announcing themselves as dullards of discernment.
What will they call future earthquakes? Tectonic Travesties?
Future tornadoes? Vortex Velociraptors?
Hurricanes? Cumulonimbus Combobulaters?
I should either stop giving them ideas or write more down so I can check notes in the future to see which ones I nailed.
It's like a solar flare. It's a real thing we need a term for. I think the reason that folks other than meteorologists are hearing it, is that computing power has allowed us to start predicting these so it's filtered down to weather forecasts on the local news.
I never said the events aren't real. My issue is with the over-the-top sensationalizing of everything.
What's wrong with saying massive rainfalls have created severe flooding?
Why does that now have to be called an Atmospheric River as if there is some big f*cking river in the sky that's come down to smite the Ringwraiths?
Another recent name from the past is BOMB Cyclone. Why Bomb? It's called a tornado. Tornadoes sometimes drop out of the sky unexpectedly, do some damage, and then move on or lose strength and disappear. There are no bombs involved. Tornadoes are vicious all on their own.
Maybe I'm a weather nerd..... actually....I'm not....
But I still know these are not at all equivalent.
Atmosperic river describes a special phenomenon that is different from just heavy rainstorms.....The Pineapple Express is one that routinely forms in Hawaii.
A bomb cyclone is a storm that intensifies rapidly. It goes from not too bad to OMG really quick. That's how they got their name.They start differently from other storms and were called weather bombs. I just now read of one out west where the weather dropped 24 degrees in 3 minutes.
These see descriptions are metaphors. Atmosperic Rivers
are narrow like rivers and
have a greater flow of moisture than the Amazon.

What exactly do you object to?
I visited the west coast after one of these events and you could the damage everywhere.
You certainly want to know when there are going to happen. They got like 6-10 inches of rain the week before I arrived.
Went across the whole US and dumped 2 feet of snow in Boston https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_31_%E2%80%93_February_3,_2021_nor%27easter

Bombogenesis is when a storm rapidly intensifies.
They are different from other weather events
