Category 6 Hurricanes?
Recent news chatter about creating a new Category 6 Hurricane metric is just nonsense -- because, in the end, no matter what scaling is used, the trend will still show a downward trend. Don't fall for these junk science articles -- just look at the data to see reality -- global warming is reducing hurricane frequency and strength.

Rest assured. Any new label selected will be for one thing. Shock value.
In our day and age, actual information is becoming more and more irrelevant. |

My two cents…. There is no such thing as Global Warming and Man can not control the weather! I am not talking about air pollution that is a different story. We need clean air to breath!

Maybe 99 categories would even be even better. And in the end ... the trend will be downwards.

Hurricane and typhoon numbers are decreasing, study finds, even as they become more destructive | CNN
Except in the North Atlantic where they are increasing. |

Then, maybe 20 years ago or so, we heard no more about "Canadian Highs". Instead, "Polar Vortex" came into vogue. Unlike Canadian Highs, Polar Vortex forecasts came with ominous warnings about falling temps, often with descriptions of what frostbite consisted of, sober advice to parents about how to keep Junior bundled up, in sight of parents or caretakers AT ALL TIME when outside, things like that. Bottom line: Canadian Highs were welcome events. Polar Vortexes were not. But they were just two different names for precisely the same weather event. Heard an interview with one of the local weather guys in Duluth, MN, about the name change. He admitted that it had been done precisely for the shock value. |

1. Although global storms are down, N. Atlantic storms are up because the AMO is in its warming cycle - which will soon end. 2. "Destruction" has nothing to do with hurricane frequency or energy -- but it has everything to do with people choosing to live dangerously -- like in tornado alley and along hurricane prone shores -- without proper building construction and without necessary support services. It's an education problem -- not a climate problem. Last edited by sounding; 02-06-2024 at 11:40 AM. |

I remember about Day Three, and cabin fever was setting in. I grabbed my XC skiis and headed out, thinking I'd be the only one out there. Was I wrong! The streets were filled with people on skiis! For about five days 6th Avenue East was the best ski run in the state. |

That's just another claim - unsupported by data - just like there is no data proving man-made CO2 harms our climate - but there is data proving it helps our climate.
