Just to be clear, I know
record flooding and
frightening heat waves aren't hurricanes...but...and to repeat, once more...these events in themselves aren't ironclad evidence of global warming, but they sure as hell, pun intentional, offer examples of exactly the sort of extraordinary weather events (in insurance parlance, "Acts of God"...I think) that will become all-too-ordinary WHEN the climate is irrevocably changed. Guess we better get used to it.
