"There was a lot of hype with this," said Frank Marks, director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Hurricane Research Division in Miami. "But there's no direct connect between the warming of the Earth and hurricanes." Yet, global warming advocates counter that one year proves nothing and that their studies are based on longer-term trends. They argue that global warming is heating up sea surface temperatures enough to generate an abnormal number of intense hurricanes. lol "Just wait 'til next time!" Sounds like the lefties' global warming debate on this thread. Do you even read what you post? Or just jump at the headline? Of course, I read the entire article.....but what did you do, stop reading once you read the line above? You should have kept going: "Although the Atlantic was quieter this year than last, the rest of the world's oceans were more active than normal, said Judith Curry, a professor of atmospheric sciences at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. Worldwide, just as many major hurricanes were spawned this year as last, she said. One of those, Typhoon Durian, slammed the Philippines with 140 mph winds on Thursday. You are so desperate to prove that you are right that you end up missing the pivotal paragraph in the article. And let me add, at least liberals are open to the possibility of global warming. You all are so shut down average temps could go up by 20º next summer and you still wouldn't believe.
