This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Oceans in Southern California not warm enough to sustain hurricanes yet, on path to. Warming ocean will also raise humidity and have less of a cooling effect.
