The U.S. Atlantic Coast is becoming a hotbed for rapidly intensifying hurricanes, as climate change fuels wetter and more severe storm systems, a new study has found.
A warmer world will likely beget hurricanes that gain strength faster and exacerbate the risk of flooding along the Atlantic Coast, according to the study, published on Monday in Geophysical Research Letters.
Hurricane Ian’s recent crash-landing in Florida was among the strongest storms to arrive and is a testament to how hurricanes can suddenly turn severe, the researchers observed.
The rates at which hurricanes have strengthened near the Atlantic Coast have surged since 1979 — a trend that is poised to continue in a future marked by continued fossil fuel dependence, according to the study.

How many grant dollars did they swindle to make this up?
Wetter ?
Send one or two of them this way. Texas is drier than a fart.
Crap comes from butts, and so do these studies.
I thought they were supposed to be more numerous and more powerful.
Were the scientists wrong about that?
Uh...yeah...okay.
Hurricanes Promiscuous and Lascivious have given the east coast one heck of a spanking. Cigarette sales oddly through the roof.
And to illustrate their point about hurricanes along the Atlantic Coast, they cite Hurricane Ian, which hit the Gulf Coast. Brilliant, these government “scientists.”
I always get my weather forecasts from the Department of Energy..............................
New improved H2O is 110% wetter than the old H2O. SMDH! CLIMAGEDDON! is at hand!
So hurricanes fall under the auspices of DoE. Obviously there are entirely too many people working there. Cut DoE employment by 90%. Make them focus on energy and only energy.
Here’s actually what’s going on.
Supervisor: Do we have evidence of man-made climate change?
Scientist: No we don’t. The data is just not there.
Supervisor: If you want to keep your job, you’ll rethink that answer.
Scientist: Oops! Yes, there is overwhelming evidence of it. And I’ll manufacture all the proof you need.
For those of us who accept the quackery that we are in the throes of “climate change”, I hear there is a new vaccine for that. It’s perfectly safe.
“Our findings have profound implications for coastal residents, decision- and policy-makers,” Karthik Balaguru, a climate scientist at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, said in a statement.
Mission creep.................................
The Department of Energy is delivering a clean energy future that creates good-paying, union jobs for communities in every pocket of the United States.
Only one has hit the US this year. So when will this dooms day scenario start? In 150 years when no one here is around to prove them right or wrong? Just more Voodoo Science.
In other news, those of us up north need to brace ourselves for slower, snowier, snowstorms.
faster... feh
What a steaming pile.
