Uh-oh..

"James Hansen is arguably the giant of all climate scientists."

He has just published a new paper on updates on the climate system: https://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/2023/UhOh.14August2023.pdf...

A tropical storm watch, upgraded to a tropical storm warning, was issued for much of Southern California Friday.

The National Weather Service's San Diego outpost said this was the first time such an advisory had ever been issued for the region.
