Hurricane Beryl, after ravaging the Caribbean, is now poised to dump a lot of rain on Western New York tomorrow. The storm track takes Beryl up the Ohio Valley and into the Buffalo area. It’s rare that hurricane/tropical storm remnants make it all the way from the Caribbean to Canada! What wacky weather!
Are you concerned about Climate Change?
Who, with any sanity, is not? This, of course, disqualifies PROJECT 2025 cult members.
The endless 90s F around here is dire enough.

Todd, THE WEATHER CHANNEL meteorologists have noted that New Jersey is on of the states whose temperatures have really jumped!
C’mon, George. Repeat after me:
“There’s no such thing as climate change. ”
My cousin was carrying on about Beryl coming to Connecticut, but before we left we saw the path would take the storm to Western NY and Ontario.
Batten down the hatches! Good luck.
Jeff, our weather-guessers are predicting heavy rain and gusty winds for tomorrow. The word “flooding” was mentioned…
She’s just trying to escape to Canada before the election. Can’t really blame her.
Jerry, Beryl is barreling towards Western NY and Canada! She won’t be stopped by Customs at the International Bridges!
Stay dry, George! As for climate change, I’ve been assured by Fox News & Talk Radio that it’s just a liberal hoax, so I can ignore the asphalt when it starts melting!
Deb, even Fox News can’t ignore the devastation in Texas with millions of people without power and flooding everywhere! Next year, the temps will be even higher fueling more storms!
Listen, George,
if you get Campaign Contributions from Big oil,
there is no such thing as Climate Change!
Dan, you are so right! Oil companies have their own brand of meteorology!
We’re thinking of going to see Jeff’s sister in Scottsdale AZ. She’s having some serious medical issues. Not looking forward to 118° but IT’S A DRY HEAT! just like an oven!!

Jackie, my sister in Tucson calls frequently to give me the latest temperature there. Triple digits are the norm right now! Dry heat is still really, really HOT!
Well, to put it gracefully, we’re screwed 10 ways to Tuesday. Until and unless someone finds a way to make wind, solar, and geothermal cheap and ubiquitous, we’re tied to petrol, coal, and natural gas. I have to laugh at those ads claiming Big Oil is funding clean energy research. With luck George, Beryl will blow itself out by the time it reaches western NY.
Fred, energy is the key to the Future. But we need to eliminate (or drastically reduce) carbon dioxide emissions! I’m hoping Beryl runs out of gas (and rain) by the time it hits Western NY! But Beryl has sure packed a punch in Texas!
As you can see Beryl will hit us first. Not expecting anything too dire compared to Houston though.
Patti, hope Beryl doesn’t hit your area with massive rain.
Wish you all the very best!
I also had some hurricane experience in Florida, shudder to think of it.
Once I was in Miami Beach and on day at 5 or 6 am the Mayor was on tv telling everybody to get off!
So I jumped in my car, the hotel people told me it wouldn’t be so bad because the hotel was not on the beach, but still I went to St Pete Beach and returned after 3 days.
The hurricane had changed its mind and went to Ft Lauderdale so I had to have a look – in one hotel on the beach all windows had been destroyed …
Wolf, when it comes to hurricanes, it’s better to be Safe than Sorry!
I experienced my first hurricane when I was a little boy in Rhode Island! They have them every year! Ever hear the phrase “hurricane season?”
Bob, but the Hurricane Season used to be from September to December, not in July! And, there weren’t 23 Hurricanes, either!
Bah! Anything more than a stiff breeze brings the pearl clutchers out in wailing droves! Why, when I was a boy we considered hurricanes a gift from heaven to kite fliers!
Bob, Western NY just got hit with 4 inches of rain in a couple of hours! Lots of thunder! And…more to come this afternoon!
