Out of concern for his children and grandchildren, the scholarly grandfather wrote “Storms Of My Grandchildren.” Hansen’s book is 20th century prophecy. ….

Climate students mention storms of the past that remind us how quickly Earth seems to be responding in a buildup of carbon dioxide.
There has been evidence in this century:

I wonder if Hansen also forecast the 1780 hurricane?
The Great Hurricane of 1780, also known as the Hurricane San Calixto II, is the deadliest Atlantic hurricane on record. Well over 25,000 people died when the storm passed through the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean between October 10 and October 16. The hurricane struck Barbados with wind gusts possibly exceeding 320 km/h (200 mph)
