Until recently, scientists thought storms driven by global warming were a century away. Now, new evidence proves them wrong.
They examined the recent severe hurricane seasons and found a 50% increase in severeity and duration of storms in the Atlantic just since 1970. F5 hurricanes used to be rare, now they have become commonplace.
Who can forget Hurricane Isabel, which roared across the Atlantic, becoming an F5 for a while before dropping back to lower power before slamming into this very city?
The menace of global warming is here today!
