re: There is no reason to expect any change in hurricane patterns in the near future, the number of hurricanes have been increasing since 1995 and will continue to do so for the next decade or two, according to Max Mayfield, director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami.

"Globally there was no drop in hurricane intensity," Curry said. sun-sentinel.com
