An extremely rare hybrid low-pressure system that occurs in the mid-latitude Mediterranean Sea. Medicanes are similar in virtue to a tropical cyclone but have the characteristics of a mid-latitude storm. Medicanes possess a warmer core than most Mediterranean low-pressure systems. Typically the cooler waters of the Mediterranean don't have warm enough water to generate the energy necessary to fuel tropical waves and related thunderstorms that spawn a tropical cyclone. Medicanes have the potential for tropical-storm-force winds, heavy rainfall, and coastal flooding .
Rare storms like a Medicane may become more common if climate change makes the Mediterranean Sea warmer.

Get the Medicane mug.One of the dumbest words ever invented by the climate change freaks. Their brilliant linguistic formula is "mediterranean" + "hurricane" = "medicane". It's just so wrong in many ways especially because the good old word "cyclone" was good enough.

Get the Anals of Internal Medicine mug.A single payer healthcare bill proposed in the United States that works by expanding the already existing Medicare program to cover all citizens.
Medicare For All funds healthcare through taxes, rather than paying premiums and deductibles to profit-driven insurance companies.
This is important legislation because the United States is the only developed nation that doesn’t have universal care for all of its citizens.
