One, namely I, must concede to wondering in this year when tornadoes are erasing whole towns whether something big and ominous is going on, or merely big and awful but just one of those things that happens in an unpredictable world.

After Joplin, Mo, was run through a deadly mill yesterday, with deaths counted at 89 and much of the town flattened, about a month after a huge outbreak killed many more in the Ohio River valley, it seemed a good time to round up stories from reporters trying to put a scientific perspective on things. The bag is mixed. Some good ones on forecasting such things. Nobody, and this is also sensible, reports that there is a convincing, broad explanation for why so many this year.

Quick Science Stories on Sunday’s Storms :

ABC World News – Ben Forer : Joplin, Missouri tornado: What’s causing the Rise in Deadly Storms? ; Short answer from some weather service workers: Nobody knows. Deaths are up. Number of tornadoes may be, or not. They are hitting more places with people in them. Global warming cannot be judged as a prime factor with info now at hand. Nice job – the situation is ambiguous, the story doesn’t try to squeeze out anything more. Forbes – Kenneth Rapoza : Climate Change Unlikely Factor in US Tornado Spree ; No, he says. Awful. Terrifying. But too tiny to rank high on enviro threats. Nothing like big hurricanes, it says here.

AP, etc: Terrific. Alien invaders now include (and have done so for awhile) hungry stink bugs from Asia. May 23rd, 2011

I just unlearned something. The big black beetles that walk with their noses down and fannies high and that my brothers and sisters and I all called stink bugs as kids are not the real stink bugs. (I also just looked through the Audubon Field Guide to Insects and Spiders – it appears that we were stepping wide of broad-necked darkling beetles, native to California).
