Climate alarmists
talk about slow,
intermittent, mild
global warming
as if that was
an existential
crisis.
I point out that
most people like
a slightly warmer
climate.
So climate alarmists
have invented a new
(fake) problem, besides
global warming --
"extreme weather"
Every hurricane gets
a lot of attention,
as if hurricanes
were something new.
The frequency
and intensity
of landfalling
hurricanes
along the
US coast
has not
changed
since 1900.
An index called
Accumulated
Cyclone Energy
combines the
frequency and
power of tropical
hurricanes
( aka cyclones )
making landfall.
The measure
for the U.S.
is called "ISAAC"
-- Integrated Storm
Activity Annually over
the Continental U.S.
The nearly
12-year stretch
from 2005 to 2017
was by far the longest
interval in US history
without a major
(Category 3 or higher)
hurricane making
U.S. landfall.
That 12 year record
was twice as long
as the second-longest
inactive stretch.
Climate alarmists
pretended
not to notice.
Alarmists have been
falsely claiming
the US is in for more
and stronger hurricanes.
But the record shows
the opposite has been
happening --
historically low rates
of hurricane formation.
