An interesting plot: For everyone out there who's arguing that the Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption added a lot of water vapor to the atmosphere, here's a plot of total atmospheric water vapor (60N-60S). I've removed the dates on the x-axis, so please tell me when the eruption occurred.

I deleted my response. Not being able to answer your question, I looked at a number of sources to see if I could find an answer. Failing that, I quoted some stats on the volcano. Now I'm embarrassed because the eminent Professor Katherine Hayhoe ticked me off. 😒

I am sorry I misunderstood. We climate scientists regularly have people lecturing us and I mistook your post for that. My apologies.

That's very decent of you. I should ask questions, rather than wade in way over my head.

It tells you something about social media when a Canadian automatically assumes someone else is a bad-faith troll. On Twitter, she would have almost certainly been right.

I do think there’s some OTSD (O for ongoing) for sure!
