The Guardian: "Are hurricanes getting worse?" Answer: Yes, silly, and it's due to global warming

I know this is all just liberal propaganda, but just in case you're not a braindead Trumper....


More of this silly "science" bullshit here: "Climate change means Hurricane Florence will dump 50% more rain":

"Hurricane Florence is set to bring 50% more rainfall to the US east coast due to human-induced climate change, according to a landmark forecast that has outlined the influence of warming temperatures upon the looming storm. 

An attribution study by scientists ahead of Florence’s landfall, expected in North Carolina on Thursday, found that the storm will be about 50 miles (80km) larger in diameter than it would be if human activity had not warmed the planet.

The hurricane is expected to bring about 50% more precipitation, delivering as much as 20in (51cm) of rainfall in coastal areas, due to climate change. The forecast was completed by researchers at Stony Brook University and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. 

'Dangerous climate change is here, it’s not a problem for future generations,' said Michael Wehner, staff scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. 'These risks have been permanently increased and we have to accept that fact.'"
