1/3 of Pakistan population lives on a flood plain.

And it has happened before. And it will happen again. You can see it in cycles of the IOD. Maybe recorded in the Vedas too.

Pakistan's Head Mujahideen plays the green guilt card for funding. He may have picked the wrong year.
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Friday highlighted the devastation caused by the floods in his country due to the impact of the climate catastrophe and urged the global leaders to act before it's too late.
"What happened in Pakistan will not stay in Pakistan," he said in a passionate address to the United Nations General Assembly,

Why do people build on flood plains??? They tend to be good farm land, and are often too large to farm from the edges. |

They need to move on up that hill. The River gonna go where the River gonna go.
Bad ancestral decisions are now occupied by the poor.

We had 48 mph winds all day today here. Gusting to, I couldn't even guess. I can't really remember a windier day. On the back side of a weather front.

We had 48 mph winds all day today here. Gusting to, I couldn't even guess. I can't really remember a windier day. On the back side of a weather front. Middle Earth remains unscathed. Light winds, 70F till about 3PM, then light thunderstorms. Most strong cells went north or south of us. We pay our temple priests well. 
I've almost finished digging the new potato bed. Actually a 3-foot retaining wall I erected along the seasonal drainage, and filled with triple-ground wood mulch 3 years ago - mixed with the excavated slope dirt and rock pieces. Green onions have been growing there for the last 2 years. Yesterday and today I pickaxed it to its bottom. Amazingly crumbly soil now with large masses of onion roots and worms throughout. If the worms like it, it must be good. I'm wondering if my potatoes will have a mild onion flavor. Hopefully I haven't missed anything.
Daffodils and ground covers are beginning to bloom like crazy. Peach buds are swelling and the redbuds will soon be in bloom. For the next month Middle Earth will be a showcase of blooms and smells ... assuming no great beast from the North.

Why do people build on flood plains??? In this article they give examples from places like St. Louis County, MO. If they had eyes instead of climate theology, they would note that the north boundary of St. Louis County is the Missouri River just upstream of the Mississippi River ... and its "flood plain". If they consulted a dictionary, or better, a basic geology/physical geography textbook, they would understand WHY they call it a "flood plain". It has flooded periodically since before there were people to record it. The old folks knew that occasionally they might need a boat. The new folk believe that floods don't happen unless WE make them. There ain't no accounting for stupid.
That makes Everson part of a slow-churning crisis playing out in eastern Kentucky, the suburbs of St. Louis and other towns across America. Historic rainfall – associated with climate change – is causing a dramatic rise in flooding and pushing communities to the brink.

Thank you Ratty. They forgot one record. It's not really weather ... but is I think related because of our sun ... what I call Geomagnetic Disorder Syndrome. "Year with the most brain-dead people - 2022". Soon to be beaten in 2023. A new movie perhaps: Night of the Geomagnetic Dead. |
