Aside from the fact that that chart is only reporting hurricanes that make landfall in the US, other folks have different measurements. But we can discuss this all year without coming to an agreement.

According to NASA, climate researchers and scientists, and weather experts across the globe, hurricanes are growing stronger in the last 40 years. In this time period, the incidence of named storms (including tropical storms and hurricanes), hurricanes, and major hurricanes has increased in comparison to previous decades.

Additionally, weather data going back to the mid-1800s shows that storms in the Atlantic basin are growing more common and more likely to develop into major hurricanes characterized as category 3, 4 or 5 storms.



Data to create charts sourced from tropical.atmos.colostate.edu, it’s worth noting that in the 1800s and part of the early 1900s, our ability to measure the strength and the quantity of hurricanes each season was much weaker than today. It’s very likely that data from before the 1950s is incomplete and would not be a reliable source of information to determine longer term trends surrounding storms that develop in the tropical Atlantic.
