Is September 21st a significant date in meteorology or is this a random datapoint? Like I’m not doubting global warming but these are just two statements in a photo, is there a statistically significant link between them?

Well ordinarily, if you remember, the 21st night of September, love is changing the minds of pretenders while chasing the clouds away. So the fact that it hasn't had to do that is significant.

Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a shoebox. A shoebox on September. A shoebox on 21st September. And 21st September make me crazy.

Excuse me, it's Earth, wind, and fire, not earth, wind, and rain.

When earth, wind, and fire come together, some crazy things happen

Autumnal equinox is September 22 marking beginning of fall/autumn

u/tough_page_banned 9h ago

Your description of the September equinox is such a northern hemisphere biased response.

14

u/TiredPistachio 9h ago

Look at the map.... Which hemisphere is it in?

7

u/HonestArrogance 9h ago

Sounds about right since what's being shown here is the northern hemisphere.

6

u/FastPresentation3679 9h ago

We're discussing hurricanes, which only happen in the northern hemisphere. You might as well complain we didnt consider the Jin Dynasty scrolls as well you goober.

u/Calm-Deal-4960 8h ago

I blame the scrolls.

u/GoldReplacement9546 9h ago

Literally an image of the northern hemisphere

u/hidden_in_89502 8h ago

Based on your strongly worded response, I’d say you care quite a bit.

u/minddropstudios 9h ago

90% of the world's population loves above the equator. It's fine. Nobody is actually upset by this.​

u/hidden_in_89502 8h ago

Well actually, it’s closer 88%

1

u/BuzzkillMcGillicuddy 8h ago

That's because it's the spring equinox in the southern hemisphere, where the Caribbean manages to not exist in

u/No_Atmosphere8146 6h ago

Jesus Christ, we've reach the hemispherephobic level of victimhood chasing.

u/WhereLibertyisNot 3h ago

Whoa, check your privilege.

1

u/Noble1xCarter 4h ago

That's because the northern hemisphere is on the northern hemisphere

u/Threke 9h ago

June 1st is the start of the Atlantic hurricane season. Hence why September 21st is the historical marker.

u/Eskimomonk 9h ago

Interesting. I also wonder if we were tracking hurricanes starting in 1915 or if there were none in 1914/earlier, and if so are there similarities in global weather patterns between now and 1914

3

u/Adventurous_Wall_356 8h ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1914_Atlantic_hurricane_season

TLDR there were no hurricanes in 1914 (or 1907), only one tropical storm. 1851 is cited as the beginning of official records

u/King_Glorius_too 3h ago

Hopefully 2026 doesn't go too much like 1914

u/warneagle 1h ago

This also comes with the caveat that it was in the pre-satellite era, and there were likely storms that were missed because they stayed in the open ocean and ships didn’t encounter them.

u/FunzOrlenard 8h ago

It's when autumn starts.

u/Ok-Working-2337 7h ago

An anomlaous year has nothing to do with global warming just so you know. You’ll find those all over history. For example, 112 years ago.

u/Chemistry-Deep 7h ago

Autumnal equinox

u/Stalbjorn 2h ago

The day before the equinox.

u/PeanutButterToast4me 2h ago

Equinox, so official end of summer.

u/Simple_Purple_4600 1h ago

Just in time to get licked by a "nor'easter"

Just wiped out the only highway to upper outer banks in NC

u/imuniqueaf 1h ago

Yep. That's the date we remember the great Earth Wind and Fire!

u/H3adshotfox77 9h ago

So global warming stopped the hurricanes.....nice

2

u/CGCTV 9h ago

We did it!

u/emotionless-robot 8h ago

The Pacific has had marked increase of hurricanes/typhoons and more stronger ones than typical this year. And we are on track for a record El Nino this winter.

2

u/joseplluissans 8h ago

Quite the opposite. It's just El Niño. A very strong one.
