We've wasted a large part of May and we're going to waste a chunk of June as well. Why couldn't we have sunny cool weather?
I don’t know whether we’ve got a hole in the ozone layer up here but my solar gen has never been higher than this April/May. Even now at close to 6pm I’m pumping 3 kW.We've wasted a large part of May and we're going to waste a chunk of June as well. Why couldn't we have sunny cool weather?

California's renewable-heavy grid vulnerable to rolling blackouts, Newsom looks to buy extra energy
“The issue of reliability has to be addressed," California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom says about his state's power grid, which relies on renewables.
However, when California's almost inevitable heat waves come in the summer and residents crank up their home air conditioners, officials turn on massive diesel-powered generators to make up for the state’s energy shortfall and to avoid rolling blackouts.
"We laid out the markers on solar and wind, but we recognize that’s not going to get us where we need to go,” Newsom said during a recent news conference. “The issue of reliability has to be addressed.”
The summertime problem is especially acute in the early evenings when electricity from solar is not as abundant, according to the Associated Press.
Power the Future’s Daniel Turner told Just The News that Newsom is “suffering the consequences of his own green agenda.”
“Renewable energy is proven to be a failure, both unreliable and expensive, and only free government money and mandates put on the utility companies keep them afloat,” he said.
Turner also argued that California likely wouldn’t be forced into rolling blackouts had the state not “aggressively closed nuclear and coal plants” and upended its own grid.
“This is not the result of climate change but of a political agenda, which ignores market forces and basic physics," he said.
Climate Depot founder Marc Morano has a similar view, saying Newsom is giving his residents the “highest energy prices in the nation” due to the governor being “blinded by climate ideology.”
Those prices, Morano said, are bound to climb even further even if Newsom's latest “scheme” is realized.

And it's still raining in June.
Only 5 days this year over 80... haven't seen that since 1919.
Is it going to be a super hot summer? I'm hoping not but maybe morekaos knows.

So you do believe in Climate Change. Thanks for the confirmation!i’ll take that action. How much you wanna bet it’s going to be a pretty hot summer, much like the summer of 2018 after the 2017 deluge that ended the last endless drought? 85° days on the water? I love global warming!! Weather gonna weather.

‘Intense’ weeklong heat wave coming to Southern California. Here’s the timeline
“This upcoming heat wave is certainly going to be more intense and could be a long duration event, which could continue through the weekend and maybe into next week. We don’t see any end to the heat wave in the next seven days at least.”High temperatures throughout the region are expected to reach as high as 112 degrees between Tuesday and Saturday.

A heat wave is expected to hit Southern California this week, bringing 'elevated' fire danger to the region and increasing the chance for heat-related illness.

Hottest Days Ever? Don’t Believe It
‘Average global temperature’ is a meaningless measure, and comparisons to 125,000 years ago are preposterous.
The global-warming industry has declared that July 3 and 4 were the two hottest days on Earth on record. The reported average global temperature on those days was 62.6 degrees Fahrenheit, supposedly the hottest in 125,000 years. The claimed temperature was derived from the University of Maine’s Climate Reanalyzer, which relies on a mix of satellite temperature data and computer-model guesstimation to calculate estimates of temperature.One obvious problem with the updated narrative is that there are no satellite data from 125,000 years ago. Calculated estimates of current temperatures can’t be fairly compared with guesses of global temperature from thousands of years ago.
Perhaps the biggest problem with the “average global temperature” hysteria is that the entire system put in place by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been corrupted.

wow, this global warming thing is crazy huh? Haven’t seen these kinds of temperatures in….
August
In Oklahoma, by August 3, several locations in the southwestern portion of the state had recorded 43 consecutive days exceeding 100 °F (38 °C). Air temperatures exclusive of heat index exceeded 110 °F (43 °C) for much of the state on August 2 and 3, reaching 115 °F (46 °C) in Poteau and Wilburton on August 3. On the same day, Little Rock, Arkansas plateaued at 45.9 °C (114.6 °F) in the shade.[9]
As of August 10, Dallas/Fort Worth had recorded 40 consecutive days with high temperatures exceeding 100 °F (38 °C), the second-longest streak on record (the record of 42 days was set during the 1980 United States heat wave). In addition, the area set a new all-time hottest minimum temperature of 86 °F (30 °C) on July 26[10] and tied it thrice in August. However, by September 13, Dallas had endured 71 non-consecutive days with temperatures exceeding 100 °F (38 °C), beating the record of 69 days set in 1980.[11]
On August 24, a 5-hour long severe thunderstorm hit Southern Ontario that evening which also spawned a pair of weak tornadoes, nothing particularly unusual for August, but it set records for lightning frequency, thought to be fueled by abnormally high Lake Ontario water surface temperatures due to the heat wave.[citation needed]
Record heat[edit]
The National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, North Carolina reported that the United States had the hottest summer on record in 2011. Since 1901, only the Dust Bowl era summer of 1936 was hotter. Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Louisiana all reported their hottest summer on record. Delaware had a record warm July in 2011.[12] Based on an index of residential energy demand, 2011 was the hottest summer on record. However, the states of Oregon and Washington recorded cooler than average summers, while California recorded its wettest.[1]
… about 12years…it’s called summer.

Holy smoke and mirrors: Solar panels THREE TIMES more carbon intensive than natgas?
People say solar panels don't produce carbon emissions, but they do. And now, a major new investigation by Environmental Progress, drawing on the research of @enricomariutti , finds that solar panels made in China produce at least 3x more carbon emissions than IPCC claims.
