Vernal equinox brings earliest spring to US in 124 years

quote Here's one bit of good news: Spring is coming early this year. In fact, the vernal equinox, which marks the official beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere, is arriving on Thursday. That's the earliest arrival of spring in America in 124 years. According to the astronomy reference book "Astronomical Table of the Sun, Moon and Planets," the exact moment of the equinox will occur Thursday night at 11:49 p.m. ET (0349 GMT on March 20).

Before anyone tries to prove how smart they are, I know it has nothing to do with global warming. It is because of the Chinese.

And it's a Leap Year

Thank God its an early Spring and maybe summer. And with Global Warming. I hope so anyway. Because according to one of the scientist/doctors on Fox News tonight when asked if the virus was going to subside in the summer she said that she thought so. She said something about having the temperature over 60 to 70 degrees degrades to outside of the virus. And that is why most virus' disappear during the summer.

I sure hope that is going to happen with this one. And the sooner the better.

"Ireland deals setback to Trump Organization’s sea wall plan"

quote An Irish planning board on Wednesday rejected the Trump Organization’s plan to build a sea wall to blunt the Atlantic Ocean waves and halt the relentless erosion that threatens to wash fairways and greens into the sea.

quote “Winter storms remain a constant threat to the coastal and normally most dramatic holes,” Hawtree wrote in an email to The Washington Post in October. “And those storms appear to be recurring at more frequent intervals.” The Trump Organization’s consultants, as part of its application for the sea wall, warned that sea level rise caused by climate change — a concept that Trump the politician has disputed in the past — could increase the rate of dune erosion.

Focus your eyes on this animated image of the All Knowing Planck-hedron and think to yourself, in a mantra-like fashion...

"The Trump Organization’s consultants... warned that sea level rise caused by climate change..."

That was funny, in a disturbed kind of way......

Sea level rise, ? How much did sea level rise ?

rinselberg, , coastal states all around America have been prohibiting shoring up the shores where it meets the oceans for ..... decades.
