I grew up and lived most of my life in South Florida I currently live on the Gulf Coast of Alabama give me a hurricane any day over a tornado or an earthquake. At least you have time to pack up and get out of town.
The storms are not getting stronger. Several hurricanes occurred in the previous century that killed more people and caused damage. People moving in to the area are building. As she says, that is what is causing the increase in damage. And they are not any more frequent.
All this hurricane stuff is a bit depressing. Tornadoes and hurricanes in my area for the last 14 years not too mention a large forest fire west of my town.
As the climate warms up and storms become more frequent there may be a bunch of people who decide they’ve had enough and move. We could see another wave of internal migration. I wonder if Trump will round them up as well and deport them? Then he wants to use the military on those who disagree with him, If Trump wins his America will be a very lonely place.
I’ll take the snowstorms we get here in northernmost Maine over any of the other things mother nature throws at the rest of the country. If air conditioning had not been invented, people would not be moving to the South. I lived in NC during the 80’s and 90’s and witnessed the mass migration of northerners moving south. They pretty much wiped out the NC culture…..that ‘Andy of Mayberry’ culture that is now gone unfortunately.
It is not BS. Enough data exists to show the correlation between the warmth of the oceans, the strength of the storms and how it will continue. <> but I will stop now because YOU will not be cracking open your mind to allow information in. As my grandkids say…OK Boomer.

Yes, Mary Lou (and JJ) you should move where A and J are. You can find a bistro there if you really still want that. Gus could even make the move.

I’ve lived in California for over 50 years. Earthquakes aren’t the issue. It’s our wildfires.
