NOAA Tornado data: 2016 ‘one of the quietest years since records began in 1954’ – Below average for 5th year in a row | Climate Depot

As the year winds down, it looks like being yet another very quiet one for tornadoes in the US.
Based on provisional data to Nov 11th, only 2013 has had less tornadoes since 2005.​
​
​
After “inflation adjusting”, which takes account of the fact that many more tornadoes get to be reported nowadays because of changing technology, 2016 also looks like being one of the quietest since records began in 1954.

You watch, next year, we'll get an outbreak, and it'll be Trumps fault lol.

Thats because of global warming.

I had to go out and get more firewood this morning. Yep, global warming.
My athlete's foot came back. Yep, global warming.
I need to get more gas for my generator. Yep, global warming.

Standard hactivist ploy...no matter what the condition it is because of global warming.

It's pretty funny how all the dire cataclysmic predictions have gone the opposite direction. Melting glaciers, hurricanes, tornadoes, Gore getting respect.

You forgot the super moon... That's global warming too!

But that's not the case.

Glaciers are melting, some quite rapidly. Hurricane intensity is increasing worldwide- The deniers pretend the only hurricanes that exist are ones that make US landfall.

Tornados are somewhat down- the numbers in the OP reflect a guess as to how much, but that's what happens with short term runs of uncommon weather events.

The predictions are pretty spot on overall, but I guess when you can pretend the outlier predictions are the standard, you can rationalize anything to yourself and your denier buddies.

Rationalizing I see...

The only influence of AGW seen on melting ice is the soot and other aerosols. Not CO2. You can't intelligently claim otherwise with the dramatic differences between the north and south polar regions.

This statement is, as usual, backed up with the solid punditry of LoP.

The scientists who study this have a different take.

IPCC - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

(I'm sure you'll whine about how much information was just referenced, while the source of your statement is clearly pulled out of your ample posterior)

I do love how you drop the pretense that you accept AGW and pretend higher temperatures are having no effect upon glaciers despite dramatic Arctic warming.

I'm guessing next post you'll be back to the usual non denier denial.

That's generally the response if the uninformed individual refractory to unpleasant information.

Lame.

Why can't you stop being so lazy and show me an actual quote on the subject matter? I have throughout the years, explained the differences. Papers acknowledge Antarctica is growing in ice, except the regions where the "Ring of Fire" is. If CO2 was the reason for polar ice melts, then why isn't Antarctica affected like the Arctic?

But, But, one of the most cited papers in AGW says the effect would be higher at both poles than the equator.

I am guessing the rules of physics have a northern hemisphere bias!

The influence of CO2 is equal at each pole, at least equal regarding the extra back radiation from the emitted radiation. The problem is that the warmers like to assign the northern melt to CO2, when it is actually insignificant. Aerosols are the leading problem.

How can one entity, Gaia, conspire?

Doesn't that take at lest two people, colluding, to have a conspiracy?

Since Co2 is a well mixed gas, and the Physics that supposedly causes the greenhouse warming is based on the
amount of CO2, why would you think it would be different.
As for Citation,
They go all the way back to Arrhenius in 1896
