#New #presidential #polls #affirm: #NorthCarolina isn’t really a #RedState

Just in time for the #DemocraticNationalConvention in #Chicago, the latest #NewYorkTimes/#SienaCollege #poll showed what seemed #implausible just weeks ago: the #Democratic #nominee has a real #chance at #winning #NorthCarolina.

Think a killer #heatwave won't hit you?

"Looking at historical data from 1959 to 2021, we found that 31% of Earth’s land surface has already experienced such statistically implausible #heat.

We must be very cautious about using the historical record in isolation to estimate the “maximum” #heatwave possible. Policymakers across the globe should prepare for exceptional heatwaves that would be deemed #implausible based on current records."

'Statistically impossible' heat extremes are here – we identified the regions most at risk

Afghanistan and Central America have growing populations, limited resources, and the potential for more extreme heatwaves.

90% sure this article

makes absolutely no sense.
But then again, I'm not a mathematician.
