Here we go again. "Warmer waters," i.e. globull warming at it again.
Despite all the gloom and doom predictions, how long has it been since a hurricane has made landfall in the US? Ten years? Twelve?

Well, based on the last few years, “usual” means “virtually none”. So yeah, it could be worse. It could always be worse.

Or better.

The press is just salivating at the prospect of Trump’s “Katrina.”

The last Category 3 or higher hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. was back in 2005.

If they keep prophesying a worse than normal hurricane season, year after year for over a decade, eventually they will be correct one year. The sad part is that the NOAA actually has a worse record than some random guy flipping a coin.

You mean the southern Atlantic Ocean south of the equator? Where they're experiencing some of the worst winter weather in memory with some areas seeing snow for the first time ever? Those warmer waters?

They’ve been “bracing” us for really, really bad hurricane seasons for the last several years. Never materializes.

Fake science?

The climate nuts are praying for one big bad storm....to give their lies a shot of truth. Of course it doesn’t work that way.

(Breaking out the Farmers’ Almanac) - We’re fine in Idaho again this year. Could be a bad year for eclipses, though.
