How ignorant can some people be. I guess they are clueless about Hurricane Science.

From the idiot Beyoncé: "The effects of climate change are playing out around the world every day," she stated. "Just this past week we have seen an 8.1 earthquake in Mexico ".

From Matt Lauer: "Hurricane Irma was the most powerful Atlantic storm ever recorded, cutting a path of destruction across the Caribbean, the U.S. Virgin Islands and then setting its sights on the U.S. mainland."
BUT.......Hurricane Irma is actually tied for the 7th strongest hurricane ever recorded.

Actually the strength and frequency of hurricanes will be impacted by climate change
You are missing the point. I think you,unlike the low IQ moron Beyoncé are smart enough to know that climate change and earthquakes are not linked.
Also.....Matt Lauer lied......the scientific data does not lie..... Irma is not the "most powerful Atlantic storm ever recorded".
Yes...we all know that climate affects hurricanes just like it has done since the beginning of time.

There's a net decrease in hurricanes, so there's that. The destructive force of hurricanes is more due to increase population than anything else. I beleive the most powerful hurricane "recorded" was in 1935. The New deal caused that.

So, since there has been a decrease in the number of hurricanes, we owe that to climate change?
When is that going to happen? It was supposed to happen over a decade ago.

Not to play Lauer's advocate here, but he did say most powerful ATLANTIC hurricane. Not the most powerful hurricane to make landfall in the US. I believe it was the most powerful, at one point, but the direct hits on those islands weakened it before US landfall.

Hurricanes, tropical storms, and cyclones have increased in frequency.
Weird that both of those charts stop at 2005 which was the highest year on record with 28 named storms. Almost like deniers charting with El Niño to throw off the increase.

I posted the data last week that showed the Top 10 years of Hurricanes and Top 10 Major Hurricanes, the data I posted from Wunderground, which is about as left leaning on climate change as someone who hasn't had their V8 yet shows no real increase. It's pretty level since 1881.

You're reading propaganda my friend.
But since 2005, while there have been ample number of hurricanes overall in the Atlantic, the United States itself has been lucky. Before Hurricane Harvey, the continental United States had not been hit by a Category 3 or higher “major hurricane” for 12 years — dating all the way back to 2005’s Hurricane Wilma.

This pattern of activity raises two questions. First, why does Atlantic hurricane activity seemingly switch on and off over decades? And second: Why, during a period when that activity was still presumably “on,” did the United States avoid being hit by strong storms for so long?

There's been a net decrease in hurricanes since 2005, an inconvienent truth.

Camille is the most powerful in my lifetime and there just wasn't the population back then that there is now.

2005 was the highest year on record with 15, followed up by 2010 with 12 and then 1969 with 12 and 1887, 1950, 1998, 1995 all with 11.

1950 had the most major Hurricanes with 8. 2005 had 7. 99, 96, 64, 61, 55, and 26 all had 6.

The ACE index (the truest indicator) again has 2005 (250) as the highest followed up by 1950 (243). Of the top 10 in this category, 30% are within the last 20 years.

The one argument in correlative concurrence with the hypothesis is the most named storms however, the actual hypothesis says the storms should be increasing in ferocity, which the major hurricane and hurricane numbers don't jive with.

The reality is we should be seeing an increas in both numbers and ferocity, but we aren't and we can't explain why. I speculate it has something to do with depression formations over Africa offsetting some of what should be occurring.

There was increased depression in the u s from 2008 to 2016:sunglasses:

You are missing the point. I think you,unlike the low IQ moron Beyoncé are smart enough to know that climate change and earthquakes are not linked.
Also.....Matt Lauer lied......the scientific data does not lie..... Irma is not the "most powerful Atlantic storm ever recorded".
Yes...we all know that climate affects hurricanes just like it has done since the beginning of time.
Evidently global warming has an effect on leftists also... I suspect it bakes brain cavities....

The intensity of a hurricane isn’t impacted by the temperature of the ocean water over which it travels?

Lol, Beyoncé, Donnie, I wouldn't go to either one for information about anything except maybe I'd ask Beyoncé for business advice over Donnie since I'm sure she is worth more.

Because it’s a giant international conspiracy to make money and prevent chubby fools from enjoying their cheeseburgers and big manly suv’s isn’t it?

Its mostly just a money grab by con men playing off everyones fear of fossil fuels. Get rich off Big Oil.
