many Californians were born in Mexico and have traveled there previously
Or smoked/snorted something from there

The Californians leaving the state for greener pastures aren't who you're talking about.

But all that joking aside, it's currently highly unsafe for Americans on the Mexican side of the Texas border, so even if they were willing to dirty up their birkenstocks in the river, it's likely they wouldn't live long enough to do so.

I got this special email from the NYT just now:

Extreme heat waves are expected on the Eastern Seaboard and in other parts of the country this week.

Included is a map with Atlanta in this region.  So, I look at the ten day, and the highs are forecast to be in the low 90s.  It's almost like it's July or something.  Heaven forbid the temperature should slip over 90°F.

Same thing here.  We're forecast to be around 100-101 for the next 10 days.  That's normal highs for late July and early August.

July Weather in Atlanta Georgia, United States. Daily high temperatures are around 88°F, rarely falling below 81°F or exceeding 95°F. The highest daily average high temperature is 89°F on July 23. Daily low temperatures are around 71°F, rarely falling below 66°F or exceeding 75°F.

So, with highs around 92°F, it is predicted to be a few degrees hotter than normal.  I see we're past the average hottest day.  I was out running earlier and am still sweating.

My watch says 84°F, it's cloudy, and humid, 63% RH.  I get this morning feed from the NYT, it's free.  It ranges from occasionally interesting to occasionally misleading and occasionally about a topic in which I have no interest.  Today I got the usual email and then this special heat wave alert email.

Its amazing how many experts try to forecast how many named storms we will have every year and of those how many will be major and hit the US

might as well forecast how many times my cat will throw up

There is some level of predictability in hurricane frequency, it's not nearly perfect at this point, but it is interesting to make the effort.  Of course, I could "predict" 15 named storms each year and also be pretty close.

why bother as you said I could just take a 20 year average and be as accurate

nobody really cares what these guys forecast
