Colorado Flooding
Earlier this month President Barack Obama declared a state of emergency in Colorado where extreme floods have produced multiple casualties. These floods in Colorado are unusual. They are not being caused by thunderstorms or springtime rains. Moreover, they come after a month of drought in the area. People are struggling to explain the reasons for the floods. The most common explanation seems to be "global warming." However, global warming projections are off and the true numbers showing a change in global temperatures are negligible in magnitude. So why so many floods have occurred continues to be a mystery.
