Hurricanes

It has been a quiet Hurricane season in the Atlantic so far, but that seems to be ending.

Hurricanes are weather and weather over time is climate.  Its always hard to predict the impact of storms although of course the people paid to do so tend to be alarmist, since not warning people is so much worse that warning them too much.

However there are three storms at the same time just like last year on this date.

The first of these seems to be building up strength faster than is normal, unless of course we are dealing with a new normal as oceans get warmer.

It may hit the Carolinas as a category 4 or 5 and if so will be devastating.

Lets hope it weakens although the conditions are fairly ideal for it to get stronger.

The next two are still pretty far away but are notably building up strength faster than the old normal.

The simple fact is that warm equals energy and with the clear evidence of global warming as part of climate change we can watch devastating storms with increasing frequency and coastal flooding or w can do something about it.

We know the current administration isn't concerned apparently.
