One news story from a journalist counts as "many"?

Yes, funny how many are linking the flooding in Boulder to global warming but when the Big Thompson Canyon flooded in 1976 and killed 140, it was just a freak act of nature that happens every 100 years or so.

The Big Thompson flood was in July when it is normal (or always had been) to get the heavier rains (May is the heaviest). We're in mid-September, which normally has one of the lowest precipitation averages.

You do realize you kiddies blame just about every kind of bad anything on Global Warmins.

Drought. Heavy Rains. Snow. Lack of Snow. Wildfire. Floods. It's all been laid at the feet of the Warmins by Scientological Apocalysts at one time or another.

No.

When there are trends, however, people tend to say those things.

You guys, on the other hand, are captains of the "NURRRR It's 70 in July...where's da global warming, guys? NURRRR" club.

Changes in climate can impact weather events.

You just learned something. If it sank in.

And once again, Beavis demonstrates why he's a lost cause.

How many times do you have to post an article without reading it before you just give up?

Just highlighting how virtually any natural event anywhere can feed this perfect circle of confirmation bias you guys have built for yourself.

No, you highlighted how you are talking out of your ass and have no real understanding of the issue, just like you have so many times.

Congrats, Beavis.

You're the new cutthemdown.

To somebody.
Somewhere.
Maybe.

Beavis' argument is that the sheer volume of signs leading to the confirmation of AGW is proof that it can't be true.

It's not the sheer volume of signs that indicates a problem. It's the number of places alarmists keep looking for signs.

If your search for global climate truth lands you looking around a certain town or state with some flooding, you're not really looking for truth in the first place.
