    " Long-term outage risk is a function of climate change-triggered shifts in hurricane frequency and intensity; yet projections of both remain highly uncertain."

    One of the few things they have stated which turns out to be true is when their top gun, Tucker Carlson, said in a recorded public interview a year ago that he lies to his TV viewers.

    That's FOX for ya!

One of the few things they have stated which turns out to be true is when their top gun, Tucker Carlson, said in a recorded public interview a year ago that he lies to his TV viewers. That's FOX for ya!

     

     

     

    Actually Fox News has been that way for years, especially among their primetime lineups.

    And still no one can produce a Purdue Study that says hurricane frequency is increasing. So surprised. an_light

    Like jimrockford said; "THE WHOLE PROBLEM IS KNOWINGLY SPREADING FALSE INFO TO VULNERABLE PEOPLE"

    Secondly, even if cold deaths outnumber heat deaths, that doesn't mean warmer winters reduce deaths.  For example, european countries with warmer climates have higher cold mortality.  Cold temperature isn't the main cause of death in winter because of improved living conditions.  More plausible causes include influenza, cancer and cardiovascular disease. However heat deaths are more dependent on temperature.  Humans tolerate cold better than heat.

    Third, Lomborg has no training in climate science and health science.  So he often misinterprets the research of real scientists.  He ignores reasons for how climate change kill such as via drought, food insecurity, floods, diseases, storms, stress, wildfires and air quality.

    The study, published in Nature Communications, was led by MIT atmospheric scientist Kerry Emanuel, who employed a novel approach to evaluate past storm activity. Rather than relying on historical observations, which may have gaps, he performed climate modeling  to reconstruct a continuous record of hurricane activity over the past 150 years from which to gauge trends.

    His approach sidesteps one of the biggest hurdles in long-term hurricane research, which is the incomplete and inconsistent storm observations available before weather satellites were reliably present beginning around 1970. Before that bookkeeping was a bit spotty, especially before the 1940s, when ship reports were a primary source of observation over the open ocean.

    Previous research had suggested a possible increase in Atlantic hurricane intensity in recent decades, tied to human-caused climate change. This study not only supports that, showing storms are becoming more destructive, but also finds that both hurricanes and major hurricanes are increasing in frequency, a more controversial idea.

    YES, I FIND IT VERY INTERESTING! A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF KNOWINGLY PEDALING DISINFORMATION BY THE WASHINGTON POST. AND YOU TOOK THE BAIT!

    ACTUALLY LOOK an_eek2  AT THE PUBLISHED ARTICLE, NOT WASHINGTON POST MISLEADING HEADLINE. THEIR "MODELING" SAYS MORE HURRICANES PRIOR TO 1940'S AND THAT THE LAST 150 YEARS HAS AN INCREASE, NOT RECENTLY. 

    IN NO WAY IS THIS "TIED TO HUMAN- CAUSED CLIMATE CHANGE" AS THEIR STUDY DETERMINED THERE WE MORE HURRICANES PRIOR TO 1970'S THAN RECORDED. ALL HURRICANES FROM 70'S TO NOW ACCOUNTED FOR.

    THANKS FOR ANOTHER PIECE OF CLASSIC MISINFORMATION !!!!

     No reason to yell bro.

    From my experience in Florida, we get about 12 to 14 named storms a year & that's plenty for me.

    Just following the lead of another poster here who enlarges, bolds and colors quotes. I'll refrain from the colors though, over the top.

    Find that MIT study (really just a hypothesis) ironic that the author blames Clean Air Regulations for the increase in Atlantic Ocean temperature.

    Actual data says Florida was hit with 8 hurricanes from 2000-2005, then ZERO for 10 years, 2006-2015, and now 6 in the last 7 years. Guess you got used to those quiet years.

    At a glance I see 10 hit Florida in the 1940's, 3 were Cat 4. Big Labor Day storm of 1935 was a Cat 5.

    So when someone seeks the actual truth that is called whining and bitching. Oh, I see.

    And when ALL OF YOU commend a statement in a study WHEN THAT STATEMENT DOESN'T EXIST and I call it out, resort to name calling and deflection from the subject. NEVER A RETRACTION. an_lightShows a lack of honor and truth seeking. an_light

    yep  there it is in black and white  stating that hurricane frequency has been increasing over recent decades and global warming is playing a part for sure

    thx  midnight1   for posting the facts
