In the 19th century, the US averaged about two hurricanes per year. Now we average 1.5 per year
The US is also experiencing the longest period on record without a major (category 3-5) hurricane strike. The last one was Wilma in 2005, which many experts declared as “the new normal”
Major hurricanes in the US peaked in 1950
I had dinner last night with one of the few people who actually understands hurricanes and climate – Dr. Bill Gray from CSU. Look for the CSU 2015 hurricane forecast to be released today.
