Obama says that hurricanes are getting worse, based on some research done at the Choom Climatological Institute.
As we approach the end of August, there have been no Atlantic hurricanes. By this date in the year 1886, there had already been seven hurricanes – including three major hurricanes, one of which wiped the city of Indianola, Texas off the map.

It’s driving them CRAZY not to be able to say “see, I told you so”!

Could mean that, or it could mean that wind patterens in the Atlantic are not favorable for the formation of tropical storms.
If that’s how much water Australia soaked up, just imagine how much beer they disposed of....
Swallow it. Then burp, phart, but whatever you do,,,, DON’T EXHALE!
So far we’ve had TS Andrea, TS Barry, TS Chantal, TS Dorian, and TS Erin.
Atlantic storm names still left to be used:
Fernand
Gabrielle
Humberto
Ingrid
Jerry
Karen
Lorenzo
Melissa
Nestor
Olga
Pablo
Rebekah
Sebastien
Tanya
Van
Wendy
Saharan dry air and dust have played a large role in suppressing storm formation.
It would be interesting to plot that chart against solar/sunspot cycles. Probably somebody somewhere has already done that.

I’m in Tucson for the American Meteorological Society’s 29th Conference on Hurricanes and Tropical Meteorology. This is the premier scientific conference on hurricanes, and is held only once every two years, so pretty much all of the world’s greatest hurricane experts are here. One of the more intriguing posters presented at Tuesday’s poster session was titled, Evidence linking solar variability with USA hurricanes, by Robert Hodges and Jim Elsner of Florida State University. They showed that the probability of three or more hurricanes hitting the U.S. during a hurricane season with warmer than average sea surface temperatures increases dramatically during minima in the 11-year sunspot cycle.

Dust, another word for ‘condensation nuclei,’ plays a large part in the formation of clouds. Less hot air means less dust in the air which means less cloud formation.
I don’t see this as bad news since I live near the Atlantic coast. Aside from how this may affect me, there are various reasons for this anomoly beginning with cooler temps in the Atlantic Ocean, a higher latitude high pressure system in the Atlantic, lack of sun spots, dry air over the Atlantic, Saharan dust, a year where seasons seem a bit late in arriving among others.
If it continues this way, I will be very happy but please note that in 92, Hurrican Andrew, first of the season, did not land in Miami till Aug 24th.
That’s what I was thinking. “Dude. Look no hurricanes on the horizon. What? Tokin’ awesome dude.”
Are we banned from posting entire articles from stevengoddard.wordpress.com?
Why the excerpt?
You can't make this stuff up, using 0 bummer and choom in the same sentence.
I guess I was just tryin’ to save space for folks that had important things to say? Unless Mr. Moderator finds it objectionable I suppose I could have just pasted the whole thing in there.
