Camille maybe should have been classed as a very large tornado.
It seems to be Stronger hurricanes simply because they are hitting the U.S. at cat 3-5 instead of the Bahamas and Puerto Rico etc.
True dat.
“than ever before?”
How would they know?
Gee. I wonder what the effects of all the extra water vapor from Hunga Tonga might be...

No real indications of a trend, as data for past storms is less reliable, if ocean temps are 1 C warmer now than in past you could expect ore cases of rapid intensification.
Anyone reading this in west-central FL, get your valuables out of harm’s way (and then yourselves), this is 90% likely to be a very strong landfall close to Tampa Bay. The steering flow will not push it into Yucatan and it will start heading n.e. by Tuesday morning. I am predicting a cat-3/4 landfall (despite it being cat-5 now) around Clearwater to Port Richey. This is basically a worst case scenario for storm surge in Tampa Bay. I hope I am wrong (and not in a way to get this to happen somewhere else). Bad feeling about it.
Allowing the government to take more of our money is what this is all about. 1. FEAR of XYZ, 2. “government do something” 3. Okay that will be XX,XXX,XXX dollars.
Works every time and this is why we have a giant commie government recording and controlling our lives.
No.
Next subject.
Lot's of people bought that Florida swamp land and moved down from Jersey. Tampa is amongst the worst cities that I have visited over the decades.
It is important to point out that up until air conditioning was invented, Florida was considered to be mostly an uninhabitable swampland, suitable mostly for alligators and mosquitoes.
and indians... ever heard of the seminoles...
Just the old weather with more people habituating the areas with a News service that exaggerates everything.
The Great Gale of 1703 caused massive damage in England and killed thousands. Although this may have been a European wind storm, it could also have been a hurricane, as it struck during the fall. England doesn't get a lot of hurricanes, but Hurricane Kirk is headed in that direction at this moment.
Uh, no. Doesn’t anyone remember Camille? Thinking it was pre glowbull warming hysteria. I got back to the Waveland/Bay St Louis are two days after it hit. Pretty intense storm.

Camille (1969) was a small but intense hurricane. Camille came ashore with sustained winds (two-minute average) in excess of 200 mph and destroyed Bay St. Louis, MS. I almost accepted a job there and the selling point was that all the houses were new.
But the story of Helene was more sinister. I’ve been watching these tropical systems for a long time, since Floyd, 1999, and the extreme eye-wall disruptions are unnatural. Irma and Maria (2017) showed clear signs of tampering with the introduction of GOES-16 (designated GOES-East) visible imagery (0.5 km spatial resolution). When Maria went through Tampa, it had no backside, it was gone. Helene had a greatly reduced south-side too.
I put out a forecast before Helene made landfall:
Look for unreasonable amounts of rainfall in Georgia, and I’m really worried about the mountains of eastern Tennessee, southwest North Carolina and southwest Virginia. Especially if the covert government “Hurricane Intensity Modification Program” (bomb the eye-wall) is still in operation, see Super Absorbent sub-micron Particulates.
With Helene, I have never seen them tamper with the eyewall so close to landfall. Hurricanes have a natural ventilation system while over the open water. Here, exhaust from heat energy exits the top of the eye and travels away from the center in a clockwise flow (Northern Hemisphere) as cirrus clouds. But once the storm makes landfall, the ventilation system is cut off.
Particulate matter injected into the eyewall has no way of escape. So, it circulates into the feeder bands causing massive amounts of rainfall for days.
They haven’t started tampering with Milton yet but they will. Milton is a Cat 5 hurricane with a symmetric central dense overcast. If Milton expands in physical size (conservation of angular momentum), they are injecting the eye-wall with particulates. The Intensity Modification causes the eye to become more disorganized with reoccurring holes in the eyewall itself.
Milton should decrease in intensity to possibly a Cat 3 before making landfall. Here we predict decreased wind and storm surge damage at landfall but with increased floods and high water events over a larger area. The saving grace for Florida is that there are no mountains to enhance the rainfall to catastrophic levels.
Thanks.
I don’t know it’s an intensity build up or more buildup in capital investment areas such as isolated homes, retirement homes, vacation cabins or what have you..
Thanks.

You are welcome. I have been arguing my case for years. There have been recent stories about modern cloud seeding programs (UAE et al.), even seeding with lasers. But it is clear that they are injecting extremely hygroscopic sub-micron aerosols directly into the eyewall that causes a temporary disruption and reduction in intensity. They bombed Milton in the middle of the night but the storm has bounced back (923 mb). Now they risk creating a superstorm with a dumbbell eye and a 75 mile wide eyewall, just like they did with Isabel in 2003 and Katrina in 2005. They did reduce the intensity of Irma and Maria in 2017. But the price to pay is intense accumulated rainfall.
They know how to weaken a storm and they know how to strengthen a storm. I am beginning to think that they want to create a superstorm scenario in Florida to suppress the vote in that state. I hope they fail. I still think that Milton will hit just south of Tampa as a Cat 3 with the wind and storm surge on the east side of landfall, near Saratoga. Tampa should be spared the worst. I pray for Saratoga. This storm should be no worse than Ian which destroyed Fort Myers on Oct. 1, 2022, but dissipated quickly after landfall.
If they keep playing God, eventually it will backfire. They should be held accountable for the destruction from Helene. But they have immunity, just like with the vaccines.
Lots of ballots may go uncast in FL and Appalachia areas. Gee, I wonder who benefits........🤔
