Hurricanes are cause by high barometric pressure, not by gay marriage (Original Post) eridani Aug 2012 OP
YUP, only a retarded Repug would think HIGH instead of LOW Barometric Pressure. _Liann_ Aug 2012 #1

Science-impaired home-schooled fundamentalists don't know the difference between sucking and blowing.

Nobody ever understood how long they have been plotting overthrow of the govt and establishment of the plutocracy. The Tobacco Archives have been online since 1998, and when did you last look up "Tea Party"?

Guy seems liberal because he doesn't fact check, which would show that it's LOW pressure that is at the center of a hurricane?

Hurricanes can only form over warm waters in the tropical regions of the oceans where the sea temperatures are 26.5 degrees Celsius or higher. They occur in areas of very low pressure when air that is heated by the sun rises rapidly, and becomes saturated with moisture which then condenses into high thunderclouds. As the atmosphere becomes favorable for development (no wind shearing in the higher parts of the atmosphere), normal thunder storms clump together.
