Climate Change Update. Via What's Up With That. Bet you won't see this on the nightly news. Tornadoes are at a Record (60 Year) Low this year!
While many climate alarmists still try to tell us that global warming will increase tornadoes, we are in the middle of a tornado drought, and well below normal. Normally we’d see 1221 tornadoes in the USA, so far for 2013, only 716 have been reported.
