SuperSpreader Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I'll also add the problem is it's been like 110 all summer and all the soil is dry af, so it's gonna not absorb the water the way it normally would. I have some cracking on my walls from the house moving around with the dry soil, I'll probably have someone come look at the foundation and any changes we need to make to adjust later in a few months. My house doesn't have sprinklers but it's your no 1 weapon against foundation movements- so after those changes I'll have a system installed. So no, no issues with the water, but issues because we didn't have any for so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaladinSolo Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 People in large parts of China have been experiencing two months of extreme heat. Hundreds of places have reported temperatures of more than 40°C (104°F), and many records have been broken. Subway stations have set up rest areas where people can recover from the heat. On 18 August, the temperature in Chongqing in Sichuan province reached 45°C (113°F), the highest ever recorded in China outside the desert-dominated region of Xinjiang. On 20 August, the temperature in the city didn’t fall below 34.9°C (94.8°F), the highest minimum temperature ever recorded in China in August. The maximum temperature was 43.7°C (110.7°F). It is the longest and hottest heatwave in China since national records began in 1961. According to weather historian Maximiliano Herrera, who monitors extreme temperatures around the world, it is the most severe heatwave recorded anywhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Pakistan floods: One third of country is under water - minister WWW.BBC.COM More than 1,130 have died in devastating floods triggered by the heaviest monsoon rains in a decade. Quote One-third of Pakistan has been completely submerged by historic flooding, its climate minister says. Devastating flash floods have washed away roads, homes and crops - leaving a trail of deadly havoc across Pakistan. "It's all one big ocean, there's no dry land to pump the water out," Sherry Rehman said, calling it a "crisis of unimaginable proportions." At least 1,136 people have died since the monsoon season began in June, according to officials. The summer rain is the heaviest recorded in a decade and is blamed by the government on climate change. "Literally, one-third of Pakistan is underwater right now, which has exceeded every boundary, every norm we've seen in the past," Ms Rehman told AFP news agency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Major sea-level rise caused by melting of Greenland ice cap is ‘now inevitable’ | Sea level | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Loss will contribute a minimum rise of 27cm regardless of what climate action is taken, scientists discover Quote Major sea-level rise from the melting of the Greenland ice cap is now inevitable, scientists have found, even if the fossil fuel burning that is driving the climate crisis were to end overnight. The research shows the global heating to date will cause an absolute minimum sea-level rise of 27cm (10.6in) from Greenland alone as 110tn tonnes of ice melt. With continued carbon emissions, the melting of other ice caps and thermal expansion of the ocean, a multi-metre sea-level rise appears likely. Billions of people live in coastal regions, making flooding due to rising sea levels one of the greatest long-term impacts of the climate crisis. If Greenland’s record melt year of 2012 becomes a routine occurrence later this century, as is possible, then the ice cap will deliver a “staggering” 78cm of sea-level rise, the scientists said. Zombie ice from Greenland will raise sea level 10 inches | AP News APNEWS.COM Greenland’s rapidly melting ice sheet will eventually raise global sea level by at least 10.6 inches (27 centimeters) -- more than twice as much as previously forecast — according to a study published Monday. Quote The unavoidable ten inches in the study is more than twice as much sea level rise as scientists had previously expected from the melting of Greenland’s ice sheet. The study in the journal Nature Climate Change said it could reach as much as 30 inches (78 centimeters). By contrast, last year’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report projected a range of 2 to 5 inches (6 to 13 centimeters) for likely sea level rise from Greenland ice melt by the year 2100.
