In fact, the TV meteorologists said that the Gulf temperatures "SUPERCHARGED" hurricane IAN. In fact, there seem to be only a few "naysayers" here locally that TRY to pump up anti-Global Warming sentiment. I wish I could figure out what is gained by an agenda of misinformation. The oil companies fought to conceal Global Warming way back in 1980. Man-caused Global Warming is pretty much settled-SCIENCE at this point.
I have a friend that lives near Naples and I right now removing wet and moldy insulation from his attic. he talks about the effect of Florida's recent HOTTER summers and increased Gulf temperatures. It would be hard to convince him that the Earth was cooling recently. I think most people believe otherwise!
