We are seeing fewer storms of greater intensity? The first storm to hit in a long time and it's a category 3. Wow. Weep for the future.
Attack of the cherry-picking zombies. Just had a search and holy cow the threads go to the moon. Erhardt Von Grupten Mundt much?
People just don't know. More fires, more extreme hurricanes and typhoons, more extreme tornadoes... I don't know if removing oil from the ground causes earthquakes. We know that fracking does.
The press wants to make a big deal about a "Cat 3" hurricane. When I was in the military stationed in the Pacific, I experienced 5 such storms. 120 mph winds, while not inconsequential... damage of course but not generally catastrophic... are not that big of a deal. Cat 4 & 5 now, different story.
