and posted links to Mexican reporting. Not quite four feet. More like one meter in a somewhat small area.

These weird weather events are increasing (as predicted). And I expect my fans to call me a liar over this again. After all we all know Televisa and Milenio are not valid sources since they are not American. Don't get me started on what I think about THAT attitude. But hey, that is what they need to do, let them.

What I did like when I was down there for that... was what they did. They did not drag a talking head to explain it. They dragged the head of the National Weather Service who explained it in simple, yet technical language. I loved it, I watched SCIENCE on TV.I wonder if they did the same in Texas for four feet of hail... now that is really impressive.

We need shit like that. Instead we get climate weather denial loonies. (Local station weatherman is well known as a climate change denier)

I was talking to an 80 something, who has lived all her live here in Chula Vista. She was telling me much it has changed, and of course that also includes Chula. It used to be a long day excursion over dirt roads to get to San Diego. The border was more accessible. But back to weather, it's gotten more extreme.
