We know that extreme weather is the worst it has ever been in the US, as we pass 1,030 days without a hurricane strike. The longest hurricane-free period since before the Civil War.

If this Atlantic hurricane season turns out to be another dud, I expect to start seeing hand-wringing articles in the usual places, worried about unprecedented reduced rainfall in gulf coast states due to the lack of hurricane impacts. There’s always a way to extract a climate catastrophe signal, regardless of the shape of the ink blot…
Or we’ll hear this was predicted by climate change/global warming/climate silliness of some sort.
We will hear the usual BS about hurricanes being less frequent, but more intense.
Hurricanes
“Less frequent; more intense.”
Lo Cal Beer
“Great taste; less filling.”
Candy
“It’s a breath mint, it’s a candy mint, it’s two mints in one”
Examples of marketing slogans. Just saying.
