Alberniweather ☔️ ☀️ ❄️ 🌬️ on Nostr: The #bombcyclone has cut off all road access to West Coast communities on ...
The #bombcyclone has cut off all road access to West Coast communities on #VancouverIsland. There are three roughly equal factors:
1) Extreme Winds (made more likely by Climate Change)
2) Unusual (unprecedented?) Easterly direction. (Possibly due to Climate Change jet stream changes?)
3) Forestry policy allowing huge clear cuts which allow winds to access new areas and knock down more trees. (The reason 300-1500 year old Old Growth forests exist is because they exist IN A FOREST)
