Good morning, John, give me four minutes so that we can have a legit conversation about a warmer Earth and what that means for actual weather. The kind of conversation that we never get to have because it doesn't fit into a 15-second sound bite. Here's what we all need to get. And I don't think it's anybody's fault for not getting this. We talk about the effect that a warmer Earth will have on the weather. We're not talking about what's gonna happen. We're talking about what's probably gonna happen. We are more properly the probability of what will happen. We are never gonna know how many big storms are gonna hit the U.S. in any given hurricane season. But we can take a look over the last 50 years and see how many major storms formed per year. And I'm doing that right now. I'm putting it dot for every year. Most of the years had two storms. Some of them had five, some not four, some fed zero. That year with seven storms there, that was 2005, the year that Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. Alright, you see what happened here. There is a curve. This is a probability distribution. And it is always how we should be thinking about how a changing climate is affecting weather today. Now, this year. Not the dots, the curve. Every year at the end of the hurricane season, this probability curve collapses into just another dot. It is no longer a set of things that could happen. It becomes a very specific thing that did happen. Last year it collapsed into four major storms the year before that two, the year before that two again and the year before that zero. Oh, do we have a trend happening here? No, no, no, this is not a trend. Every year the curve runs itself again and it might collapse down to zero or it might collapse out to seven. Like look at the dots. Obviously no one dot on this curve is important. And also the curve is saying that all this stuff happened. Everything that's in here is well inside of the realm of normality. The number of serious storms from year to year can jump dramatically while being the effect of the same probability curve. A warmer planet doesn't take you from this to this because global energy in the system isn't the only important variable. It takes you from this to this. Something important is changing and that's shifting the curve. With that new curve collapses into its reality dot that might still be at zero. It's just less likely than it used to be. And years like 2005 will still be rare. They will just be less rare. And if there are more strong storms, there's a higher likelihood that they'll end up hitting in the worst places possible as Harvey did as Katrina did. Homes that used to be considered safe might now find it difficult to get insurance because no one understands probability curves like the people who work at insurance companies. And these probability curves are what we use to determine whether a flood has like a one in one hundred chance of happening or a one in fifty chance of happening. And as that changes, those hundred year floods start to not be hundred year floods. And a curve can shift before we're aware of it. Like with this, we only get one new dot a year, which is why we create computer models so that we can run hurricane seasons over and over and over again with slightly changed variables to see what will happen. And what we see with more energy in the global system is the curves shifting towards stronger, wetter storms. The more carbon we release of the atmosphere, the more these curves shift. And that is the future that we have to accept and the one that we have to prepare for. And also, the one that it's good to try and understand a little bit. So thanks for taking four minutes to do that. John, I'll see you on Tuesday. That took substantially less than four minutes. I'm quite proud of myself. So here we are together and the incident has so much time. I'm going to Australia. See a VidCon Australia, Australia people. This shirt is the new giraffe love shirt designed by Ming Doyle. I like it a lot. You can get a dftba.com. What else should I talk about? We sold out a backpack. So this is mine. You can't have these are my favorite fidget toys because they're quiet. Like no noise I can play with a mom on a phone call and it is not as noisy as this. Everybody hated me and now they don't anymore. There's a YouTube video I should make you go watch. Crashcross Film Production with Lily Gladstone. So good. And the recent series on Guns in America from Healthcare Triage. Really well done. Okay, bye.
