Had an unusually quiet start to hurricane season, which peaks in a week. I’m sure the Climate Cult will come up with some pretzel logic explanation for this. But “the experts” have been quiet on this so far.

Well the odds of getting 5 major hurricanes this year is going down by the hour.
NOAA was way way off with their predictions.

The Weather Channel said in a climate post last year that the temperature rising would mean fewer hurricanes and less severity.

They got smart and started talking out of both sides of their mouth. One week, rising temperatures will give us more active hurricane seasons. Than the next week, they will say the opposite, so at least one of their claims/guesses will be correct.

This year was due to more than normal sand blowing from the Sahara.
It created drier air....unfavorable to hurricane formation.

You'd think the weather channel, of all people, would tell their viewers that.

Now they are salivating over the 2 storms in the Atlantic which are not going to come near the US.

The issue is they hype up every single storm as "the big one" and then it fizzles out, or never comes.
Then people stop believing so when the "big one" really comes no one leaves.

They are consistently wrong with our local forecast. They are more into their original programming, Heavy Rescue, Mud Mountain, Gold Fever, etc. They will even have a show this fall about home rehabs. Byron Allen, who was a standup comic, owns the weather channel.

Climate change means both hurricanes stalling out and not hitting land strong & rapidly intensifying with no time to prepare with devastating consequences for land.

Gee, no matter what happens, climate change caused it.

After being hit by 4 hurricanes in the years I lived in Florida, I think of it like talking to the pitcher about his no-hitter in the 7th inning.

Those predictions, and the ones by Colorado State, mean virtually nothing. Notice they always update earlier guesses, and usually the updates are very different than the originals.
