is a Big Deal, and hard to argue with. He also worked on the IPCC.

Unfortunately, so is William Gray.

the orthodoxy at NOAA's hurricane center is that the AMO--this "natural cycle" of 'cane active periods--is the chief reason for stormy years and that climate change is a minor contributor.
This study is the latest to challenge that. A study published a few weeks ago by Kerry Emanuel of MIT and others goes even further, saying the AMO doesn't exist at all--it's all about climate change.
Living on Earth's clever and handsome Washington reporter (ok, me) did a piece on that a few weeks ago. here's the link:

It's a very good trend Bart!  I remember only a year ago the ridicule heaped upon anyone who tried to link the warmer water and more severe storms with global climate change.

Now can the drought related fires, floods, and extra strong tornadoes be tied in?   The Katrina refugees in Houston were recently submerged again.

The costs related to storm and drought alone dwarf the cost of converting to renewable electric energy.  Not even calculating in the astronomical cost of moving whole cities because of rising ocean levels.
