And just like that he was sucked out of his house by an EF6. Child's play for the EF8 and EF13 that would hit right after.

Bro why am I the nearly the only person I can see likes and dislikes of comments here.

I need to know if people enjoyed your ridiculous non sequitur as much as I did

I take that back, the answer below is now a climate denier. I have now learned that saying things like "the answer below" is inadvisable on Reddit.

I had a longer post, using the same sources and methodology, that got rejected by some other subreddits multiple times. It was originally geared towards having a discussion about why it's been so long. I retooled it into a "factoid" with the same intention of asking why it's been so long without an EF5, for this sub. Short answer, yes I did take this into account. Under the Fujita scale, the longest gap between F5 tornadoes (since the 1950s) was 5 years, until the previous record of 8 years (May 3, 1999 - May 4, 2007). Under the new Enhanced Fujita Scale, it is now 9 years, 5 months and some-odd days, and counting since an EF5 tornado has hit the US.

I planned it all, and you fools walked right into my trap. The EF5 tornadoes are on their way, right now. You can't escape.

There was no context for that but it made me spit out my drink so I'll allow it

This seems really confusing to me personally, I just trust the scientists to get us through this. My electricity company charges double from 4pm to 9pm, and I'm hoping stopping climate change will prevent that from happening. I could barely afford the energy bill as it was!

I mean predictions may be becoming less, well, predictable, but that is a consequence of the climate being less predictable because it's changing. Hence the "change" in "climate change".

That's as far as I know anyways, I won't pretend to know anything about any of this. It's all for scientists to figure out, and most scientists have said the climate change is happening and we can stop it by buying the Elon Musk cars and the Green New Deal. So I guess I'll be buying the Elon Musk cars and voting for the Green New Deal.

I don't know what bait you're talking about, but your answer combined with the answer below seems to explain it pretty well

Forgive me for seeming obtuse, but I was under the impression that weather extremes would increase due to climate change. I've seen several people on the news ask if the recent hurricane in Florida was linked to climate change, and NWS experts say it wasn't. I'm getting mixed messages. You're saying that the planet will slowly die... but we'll get less tornadoes as a result?
