A climate monster is growing right now in the Pacific Ocean, perhaps the most fearsome El Niño since before scientists even began modeling them.
The El Niño building right now, and expected to crest around the end of next year, arrives on top of all our global warming.
But for sheer intensity, most scientists agree, the climatological event which began in Pacific waters in 1877 — which the coming El Niño may equal or surpass, remember — stands above the rest.
How much will burn in the 18 months to come? It is still too early to say with confidence.

as per usual; NYT and other mainstream papers, you have to pay to read the article. Or make an account. You can’t just read something anymore. It’ s not comforting to think that the US Forest Service is gone, on top of all else.
Here ya go Sadie. I’ve found that if you insert the title of an article into your search engine… you can usually find the same article elsewhere w/o a block.

You can probably get a day pass to NYTimes via the library–I can via the Lopez Library and it seems likely Orcas Library would have something similar.
thank you, Michael. Johnson. Will use the link you provided and remember that I can do a search for the title of an article. Appreciate this!
Often you can find articles archived at archive.ph or archive.is or similar sites, which can also be very handy.
