VERIFY Snap: Fact-checking claims about the fall season
Autumn is here and the VERIFY team is answering a few questions about the fall season.
Food
Yes, the sky appears more blue in the fall, fall colors are affected by climate change, and some PSLs have pumpkin, but pumpkin spice blend does not.
It's officially fall and we're here to explain some claims about autumn foliage, blue skies, and pumpkin (or lack thereof).
Extreme Weather
Yes, rare extreme weather events are happening more frequently
Major hurricanes and extreme rainfalls, floods and heat have been more common in the past decade.
Social Media
No, animals did not escape from a New Jersey zoo during the Ida storm
Despite some social media claims, no animals escaped from a New Jersey zoo as the Ida storm system drenched the Northeast.
Weather
Yes, FEMA will pay to replace a generator that broke during Hurricane Ida, but only if you meet the eligibility requirements
To qualify for assistance through FEMA, a state needs to receive a major disaster declaration. Portions of three states have received that declaration as of Sept. 7.
Extreme Weather
Yes, Ida caused New York City’s first ever ‘flash flood emergency,’ which is different from a typical ‘flash flood warning’
A “flash flood emergency” is a relatively new type of flash flood warning used for only the most dangerous floods that rise beyond typical flood levels.
Weather
Yes, Hurricane Ida temporarily reversed the flow of part of the Mississippi River
Powerful winds pushed the water inland and temporarily reversed the flow in a section of the river. This also happened during Hurricane Isaac and Hurricane Katrina.
Environment
Yes, rising sea levels threaten national security for the US
Dozens of military installations sit on the U.S. coastline. Many are being impacted by rising sea levels.
Weather
Yes, Ida had stronger winds than Katrina at landfall, but Katrina was a larger storm
Ida was a Category 4 hurricane at landfall while Katrina was a Category 3, but Katrina was a larger storm with more widespread winds that caused record storm surge.
