According to Michael Mann the data is showing that every 0.5oC increase in warming increases the "destructiveness" of these hurricanes by 15%.

The deadliest hurricane in US history was the great Galveston storm of

The eye of Betsy passed over me whan I was a teenager; that was dramatic, and we got off school for a few weeks. Camille a few years later was small but incredibly powerful; 900 mbar. Gulfport was nearly scraped off the planet. Half of Highway 90 was gone, so we drove on what was left.

Note the dates.

Mann is the hockey-stick fraudster, no?

My wife and I are fine, it's just so much work, cleaning up the yard, garage, removing tree branches and construction debris. Helping neighbors is also needed, I'm 63, I can get around and do some work, but their are some elderly that can't get much done. We ran into a fishing boat deckhand and his family (5 kids), my wife brought them over and put them to work two days, first day moving shrimp from our freezers. Today they helped remove debris and we disassembled the damaged sections of my wife's greenhouse, so I can get it rebuilt before the first frost, usually we cover it by Nov 15th. I don't quite understand that family's finances, but they were living in a motel and got kicked out because of damage, found someone to stay with, but I guess he's not working on a boat at this time, (it could be damaged), but, they are happy do have some paying work and I'm thrilled to have 200lb strong guy wielding my greenhouse parts around, things I just wouldn't be able to do. My wife cooked up a bunch of egg rolls and fried rice and they all chowed down and over ate. After they left, I took a bath and then a 2 hour nap, it was needed. Mikek

in warming increases the "destructiveness" of these hurricanes by 15%.

That had more to do with not getting the people out before the area flooded , rather than the intensity of the hurricane itself, which seems to have be en a category 4 storm. There have been 33 category 5 Atlantic hurricanes si nce 1851, which would be one every five years on average.

Oddly enough 2000 to 2009 had eight

Only category 3 when it made landfall, but it did hit unusually far north. The last bad hurricane to hit the area was in 1685, so people had been buil ding in vulnerable areas.

The problem wasn't so much it's intensity as that it was unexpected, and it killed people who had no idea how bad it was going to be.

The denialist propaganda machine wanted to paint Mann as fraudster and his hockey stick as an artefact of his methodology. Sadly for their hopes, abou t a dozen independent studies since Mann, looking a variety of different te mperature proxies, have confirmed that he and his colleagues got it more or less right.

This news doesn't show up on denialist web-sites, so John Larkin hasn't fou nd out about it yet.

Your statement was "We lost power for 3 weeks in Wilma", which implies you are in a place named Wilma. If you had any communication skills at all, you would have said "We lost power for 3 weeks during Wilma"- but language mea ns nothing to you because no one pays any attention to anything you say any way.

You're missing the point about a little thing called statistics. The mean i ntensity and, most definitely, the frequency of storms is obviously increas ing. No one is saying anything about powerful hurricanes coming off the Gul f being a brand new phenomenon.

"Keep reading for $1." No thanks.

Do you have a paid subscription to the Washington Post? Wouldn't surprise me a bit.

What is "obviously increasing" is your fear and paranoia and obsession with disaster and death.

I'm obsessed with electronics; it's more fun and more profitable than prowling the web for things to fear. I can do things about electronics, and there's nothing that you (or Sloman) can do to change the climate.

Why waste the rest of your life cackling like a frightened old hen?

Design something. Post it here.

And your job is designing electronics that pollute the world with rare metals and scars the earth as it is mined. At least my product feeds people. I don't know why you think shrimp is being depleted, every year our bay has a fresh crop, haven't seen any change in 18 years except for a new species that was somehow brought in, but they didn't seem to flourish and haven't seen any for a couple years. Anyway, Fuck off and die. Mikek
