Bill Nye on the possibility of another deadly tornado: "It's going to happen again"
This morning, "Piers Morgan Live" covered all angles of the devastating "mile wide" tornado that struck the town of Moore, Okla. Monday and killed at least 51. Joining Piers Morgan live in studio, Scientist Bill Nye talked to the host about the possibility this type of tornado could occur again:
"You can't say from any one storm that this is a result of, let's say, climate change," Nye explained. "This is a much more powerful storm than the one that everybody talks about - May 3, 1999 - because it's wider, cutting a wider swathe"
Nye had one reminder for everyone:
"I just want to remind us all it's going to happen again," he said. "The statistic I saw was America gets at least 1,000 tornadoes every year. Last year in the whole of the year, 70 people were killed by tornadoes."
Watch the clip, and listen to the interview, as Bill Nye talks about the construction of homes in Oklahoma.

Terrible scenes in Oklahoma,echoes of Ground Zero.
That's a bit glib for my liking,this all probably the first chapter:others
brewing in the background,already 20 dead kids,so if you're posting
any more I'd watch what you say.
@ CF – Your comment was in extremely poor taste. Children died you jerk.
Methinks a few trolls today,Mr.,you can smell 'em.
Oklahoma looks like Armageddon.
Poor people.
Next time you have a 'so called scientist' on your show, you should check his statistical knowledge. If you go on
the internet and check the air temperature for tornados, it is NOT what he said which is hot air..............it is COLD
DRY Air..........this guy couldn't explain how dry ice works to children. Give me a break! Check it out!!!
You mean republicans saying they don't want to take federal money when they do it anyway.
Idiots like Morgan are why climate change is questioned. He takes a tornado that is less common than in years past and points toward climate change disasters, then even uses the storm in NJ, NY as background? I find CNN the last real news on cable, he is a better fit at MSNBC.
Weeell,it's another day of the American Robots who either call people[instantly]idiots,retards,or morons in a kneejerk way
for the appalling crime of expressing a different opinion,and here's Ol' Scales thinking it's the nature of debate.
But it's the American way.
Alas it flies in the face of the enlightened First Amendment,but seeing as you pick and choose from,and bowdlerize as
you see fit {'Tommy's Pick 'n Mix'} the Second,that ain't a surprise especially as I continually get blank looks and no
response WHATSOEVER EVER when I coolly tell you I'm exercising my First Amendment rights.
You're set in your ways,and NEED to evolve.
Shed your Scales...
What the heck are you talking about. Nobody is suggesting someone should be denied their right to free speech. What's being criticized here is the uninformed nature of some people's opinions. Contrary to popular belief, opinions can be wrong when they are not fact-based. That's one of the big problems we have today in our culture. Differing opinions are a great thing when people first carefully study the facts before forming them. But that's not how it works any more. Facts have either become irrelevant, or they have become tools to be used and mis-used to support pre-conceived notions.
I'm not going to try and respond to the comment made by Scales from their yankee eyes,, I could punch these keys,,make my point and the comment will probably end up under Kent or Bob or Larry causing confusion and disbelief ,,these boards are not organized to allow Americans to make their Point,, its British Tabloid Propaganda feeding the American ALZHYIEMERS, ALSHEIYMERS, ALZHYIEMIERS, , BRAIN CANCER, crowd... get a life .
At what point did America decide that Bill Nye was an expert on all science, including climate change? I think it's disgusting that he was politicizing this tornado while kids were still being pulled from the rubble of their schools.
I looked up the facts on tornadoes this morning. Since the 1950s, REPORTED tornadoes have actually increased. However, the reason for that is that we have gotten a lot better at observing tornadoes in remote areas and being able to tell the difference between an EF-0 and simple straight line wind.
Heck, he talks about tornado deaths last year as if 2012 was bad. In reality, 2012 was pretty quite in terms of tornado frequency. Less than 1,000 of them.
So the facts tell us that we do not even have evidence that tornadoes have been getting worse. And yet here is this "expert", still seizing on the moment to try to frighten us all. Shame on him.
Hey Bob,make this brief as I appreciate it's all about Okey right now,
but my point was you get rude objections in your face for even HAVING
a different take on things.I don't even think they're listening,and hence
come across as cloth-eared.
We should wait a few days on this,Oklahoma's just disastrous,a Tweet
on the right saying another 40 dead,and others brewing,but Newtown
remains The American Massacre Of Glencoe,yet more dead McDonald
children.
Twenty Candles.
Yes, there are close-minded people on both sides of every argument. You're right. These days, "facts" (and I use that term loosely) seem to be used to support preconceived notions rather than doing it the other way around (i.e. forming opinions based on the real facts).
I'd agree with you on that Scales, but Piers and Nye should NOT have made it their excuse to start on climate change (is that what it's named now, since GW isn't working?). They tried to use this as a political statement for climate change while the rescue efforts were still under way and people were suffering. So Bob is actually correct in this case.
Bob,
First, Climate change is not or at least should not be a political debate. It is a broad scientific theory based on tons and tons of data. Second, one of the first things Bill says is "can it be contributed to something like climate change? its too hard to tell". His main concern is that history has showed that it has happened before and will happen again so building codes should be more strict to prevent more loss of life in the future. This is not a political debate, do not try to make it into one.
That's fine. But history has also showed zero evidence that climate change has made tornadoes worse. So saying it's going to make them worse is complete BS.
Superstorm Sandy is curious:hopefully a flash in the pan,but it's
the first I'VE heard of a coincidence of storms,and the imagery
today reminds me of Jersey,and the NYPD looking for corpses
in a mountain of wood so Sandy's dragged up regardless;
hopefully the East Coast (nor anyone else) never endure that
again,we'll just have to see,but I'm always left with the before/after
images of the North Pole [1970=before,I think],and there is SERIOUS
shrinkage...where is that water now? Presumably contributing to sea-
levels rising,and if they CONTINUE to rise...
Atlantic as in Atlantis,right?
(I'll get me snorkel...)
Building codes? More applicable to earthquakes,I think:problem is
them coming straight at the house [200mph+],and striking a square
or rectangular face.They're just a nightmare,bobbing and weaving
on that damn tail,turn on a sixpence.Poor Oklahoma.
And don't think we're done yet...
Bob, nowhere did he say this was a result of climate change. He said "It's not clear. First of all, you CAN'T say from any one storm that this is a result of let's say climate change." All he's saying is that we aren't sure if things are getting worse, but we should be prepared for more, because they are going to happen again.
FAO Scary!
EVEN MORE SCARY!
This is Colonnus Britannicus calling,Pilgrim:the Ships Of War skippered
by The New Nelson will pound your Scary Farm,Redcoats shall take
your guns,flog you,and lock you in your own safe.
Give us a kiss.
THWACK!
Terrible tragedy in Oklahoma, very sad. I would appreciate more facts and less emotional distortion to enhance your ratings. The F-4 and 5 tornado frequency is half of what it was in the 1950-60s. The data is clear. The evidence shows tornado's even stronger, scientifically speaking, in 1890s and 1925 (Three state tornado) . I am a big fan Mr. Morgan , but we need facts. Thank you
Well,here's a fact:there seems to be a production-line scenario
around them these days,Alabama getting 240+ in 2011.
Don't remember that being the case before,but I think I'll read the
peerless National Geographic rather than listen to you:you come
across as pious,and there's enough smug Yanks on here as it is.
(Do you wear a bow-tie?)
There were nearly 1,700 reported tornadoes in 2011 according to the National Weather service. Having 14% of those tornadoes in one state doesn't seem all that outrageous when you consider that the vast majority of tornadoes occur in relatively few states.
thats why people need to accept God
God just used a tornado to wipe out an entire town and murder a bunch of school children.
Why on earth would I want to accept such a monstrous dick head?
Weell,I guess you're just trying to goad us with your blasphemy,but we're more concerned with Oklahoma so find another
blog or sit under a bridge.
Derp, I hope you change your views soon before your time comes. Best thing now is to pray for those who survive and need help.
Um, I think we got some mis-information on Piers Morgan Last nght. He reported over 90 deaths, but this morning it's back dwn to 24....someone got Loosey Goosey with importat news
Nooow,don't you start with Loosey,Layla (Loose Layla...),we had
Rumsfeld and Henny Penny last week (heard that live on the radio,
and watched the tumbleweed blow through my own kitchen) reprised
when he's plugging his book!!
Nursery rhymes?
You crazy Yanks...(but I love you).
Anyone know much about this Bill Nye? Like someone out the '50s...
('Heroes' springs to mind.)
Can be a wee bit unhinged,scientists,and we owe them everything,
but they can also have mildew ALL OVER their house,and give you
a shiver down your spine delivering their newspaper.
Bill Nye is a TV personality. He used to have a show called "Bill Nye the Science Guy". But he seems to have morphed himself into some sort or expert on everything science. I remember not to long ago he was discussing another topic–it might have been crude oil–where he was way off base, but people still listened like he was an expert.
Hi Piers! What about more people are moving into the Tornado Zone?
Piers, at least get a climate scientist to answer a climate question.. While Nye might be a eloquent speaker his engineering degree qualifies him to build roads and bridges, not comment with any level of detail on weather OR climate. I doubt if you would want to fly in an airplane designed by someone with an honorary degree (he has 3).. If your motive is to push an agenda, I am certain you can find a climate scientist (one with a climatology degree) to help push for or against. what ever agenda you wish.. but I don't think research has been shown that bad weather is directly related to climate change. BTW only 2 of the 25 deadliest tornados records have occurred in this Century
Apparently, Piers can't find a credible climatologist to make the linkage between a perceived climate change and tornado activity so he grabbed an actor who plays a scientist on children's television. Hope he was payed scale for his performance.
Bill Nye isn't a scientist, climatologist, ecologist, or any other ologist. He plays one on a kids tv show. If warmer temps are to blame why don't we have more tornadoes in July and August than we do in April and May? Piers and CNN have no credibility with anyone that isn't a low information voter.
Maybe next week he could interview Capt. Kirk about the finding on Mars and the Sun. CNN – you are useless. Morgan, you are a liar.
geez, i'd rather listen to thousands of scientists around the world than idiots like Hannity and Rush.
Well, Bill Nye is NOT a scientist. He only plays one on TV – seriously...
Maybe you like listening to the scientists that got caught lying about global warming and not to the ones who tell a difference story. I guess you prefer lies to truth, just sayin...
Just watched ABC News[UK edit],whole prog devoted to that
damn thing–it's Katrina levels,no doubt,I'm freakin' out at the
sheer scale of it,never seen a tornado that big.Nature is kickin'
our a$$,and there's not a damn thing we can do about it.Those
people are gonna need a lot of help,and the most generous nation
on Earth needs to help itself:you can sit on your own with 20 guns
waiting on imaginary mobs who were never there,or you can help
your fellow American.I've seen white men hugging black men as close
to them as they can in a country that's had a Civil War,Segregation,and
lynch mobs,CLEAR evidence America has evolved,and it needs to do
the same with guns.But today it's tornadoes.
(Remember,folks,Katrina levels,they need help:I'm gonna make a donation.)
Love,commitment,and prayers to dear Oklahoma,
Greg,x
Did Bill Nye just seriously imply that its the victim's fault for not living underground?
Can't watch [UK],but he looks like a serious fruitcake;got another posting,I think further up,on Aberdeen scientists who you
never saw in a silent house...
Sobriquet 'The Mad Scientist?' on that one.
Hey Piers – Why do Americans have these crazy tornadoes? In England there are no such tornadoes. The rate of tornadoes in Europe is tiny compared to the US.
We need ant-tornado legislation now!
HJC!
[Drum-roll.]
For the crime of sarcasm and bad spelling this cheeky illiterate
American yob shall be flogged repeatedly 'cos we like it like that.
'ant tornado'
Well,Drone #1832645986372 of Colonnus Britannicus ( Mk II )
also known as HJC can count his lucky Stars we're not the
French who would stake him next to an ant-HILL smeared with
molasses as standard punishment for runaways.
And mutineers...
THWACK!
The storm happened. They have happened before. Quite a stretch Mr.Bill Nye to suggest storms will happen again. Wow !
Stellar journalism Piers. Idiot. . . . . .
Brilliant, its going to rain again, its going to snow again, there will be another hurricane, tornado, flood etc....
It takes such a keen mind to predict that the weather will continue to happen in the future that I am amazed that Bill Nye hasn't received the Nobel in Physics for this astonishing revelation!
Learned something new on CNN yesterday. Ironically, it completely obliterates Billy Nye's claim that global warming will mean more tornadoes. You see, 2012 was a very slow year for tornadoes. 2013 has also been a slow year (number of tornadoes, not damage obviously). Reason for this is the droughts. And 2013 is even slower due to cool weather.
So since the climate scientists are predicting more droughts for the Central US, and since droughts result in fewer toradoes, it stands to reason that climate scientists should also be reporting that we will see fewer tornadoes, not more.
I may have a solution which may minimise tornados from happening or from generating into a monster like in Oklahoma but only once spotted earlier enough by individual tornado scientist spotters. Early stage tornados should be able to be controlled, if scientist can come up with an idea which can minimise disruption and save more life's !
this guy is really smart. he can predict there will be another tornado. dang, I thought it only happened one time on this planet.......
Back to Vulcan,McCoy...
I don't know about you but I'm sure glad I can get such enlightening information from knowledgeable scientists likes of Piers and Bill. CNN has become such a joke of a news source.
I love Bill Nye to death. But really – y'think there might be another killer tornado? Just because there's been at least one every year since eternity, you think there's the possibility of just one more? Gosh, I'd never have guessed that Bill!
You love him to death? Why? Are you on the computer all the time? (Me too,luv.)
He reminds me of a weird scientist in Scotland with mildew all over his house.Creeepy.
So...you want to kidnap and kill him? Does that mean he won't be on CNN anymore?
Don't let ME stop ye,luv...
Bill Nye, you are amazing. I love his explanations, I have since I was a young child. Even though he was most popular with children, I still take what he says seriously and value his opinion.

One important issue is that while you are searching for a student loan you may find that you will want a co-signer. There are many situations where this is true because you might find that you do not employ a past credit ranking so the lender will require that you've got someone cosign the credit for you. Great post.

I would like to add if you do not already have an insurance policy or maybe you do not belong to any group insurance, you could well benefit from seeking the aid of a health insurance broker. Self-employed or individuals with medical conditions commonly seek the help of an health insurance broker. Thanks for your short article.
