Share and Voice: Quiet Hurricane Season due to GLOBAL WARMING???




What I thought was interesting about this article was that it seems to be another sort of proof that global warming is in fact happening.. despite what oh so many politicians are trying to tell us. November 30th was the last day of the hurricane season and the article goes on to talk about the count of hurricanes being down quite a bit from last year, but mentioning that when there is a hurricane though, it is bigger in force and size.

National Geographic states, "Hurricanes draw their energy from ocean waters that have been heated to at least 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26.6 degrees Celsius)." This would explain why global warming causes these hurricanes to be a lot more powerful. Check this article out; it is quite interesting. Let me know what your thoughts are!

  1. I find it strange that it's been the quietest hurricane season in two decades. I find that crazy because you always hear on the news about all these hurricanes that are up & coming. CRAZY!

  3. Well even though global warming is not good, having less hurricanes is! I think global warming is in effect, because duluth just started getting cold last week, usually we have snow! But, I am not complaining :)
