Tom Nook 37,820 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Summer hail covered the streets of Guadalajara, Jalisco state Mexico on June 30, 2019 A huge hailstorm buried the streets days after the city basked in 31°C (88°F) weather. According to the BBC, 200 homes were damaged and dozens of vehicles were washed away in the city and suburbs, which also got rocked by the storm. The Mexican weather service warned over the weekend that “strong rain” would hit Guadalajara and the state of Jalisco as a whole. While Jalisco is no stranger to crazy summer weather, the extreme nature of this hailstorm stands out. Temperatures are expected to top out in the 80s for the rest of the week, melting out the thick mats of icy precipitation with storms this afternoon hastening the melt and potentially leading to localized flooding. “I’ve never seen such scenes in Guadalajara,” said Enrique Alfaro, the state’s governor, according to Al-Jazeera. He went on to tie the event to climate change, though there’s not a lot of evidence for what will happen to hail in a changing climate let alone in Jalisco. That said, extreme precipitation events are becoming more common as the planet heats up. The warmer the atmosphere, the more water it can hold and eventually rain (or perhaps hail) down. Conditions that can spawn severe weather are also likely to increase in a warming world. Whether this particular hailstorm is a sign of climate change is to be determined, but regardless, it’s probably a good idea to prepare for more intense precipitation now and into the future. https://earther.gizmodo.com/a-freak-storm-dumped-nearly-five-feet-of-hail-on-guadal-1836013159 https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/01/world/gallery/guadalajara-hail-storm/index.html Uh Red Wine...
