34. This is EXACTLY Climate Change

coupled with the fact that we cannot build wood structures ( or mostly wood ) AND put those structures in the middle of forested areas that are subject to Santa Ana winds ( down slope and offshore direction ). We will need to change where we can live and how we build things.

Sadly because I want to live with trees all around my house with lots of space to the next neighbor too... but with climate change... we can not do this anymore.

Just like we cannot build homes close to the ocean in the Gulf ( of MEXICO ) or along the southern east coast of the USA either.

January is the middle of the California "wet" season... but LA has had NO significant rain this season.

What has changed? Reliable patterns of seasonal rains have been completely disrupted by our warming planet. Just like western North Carolina doesn't usually ( or ever ) have a hurricane rain itself out over Asheville in the past either.

Predictable? YUP... all these events have BEEN predicted by Climate scientists for 30 years now. But people didn't listen. Many still are not listening. Not that we would have been able to depopulate these areas or even cut all the trees and brush down in the burn areas just like we never stopped people from building homes ( or even rebuilding them ) in the danger zones.
