Cool Atlantic could mean a weaker hurricane season

I'll take it...I'm still healing from a multiple bone broken leg..still not walking...last thing I need right now is a mandatory evacuation.

But the wild-eyed Climate Kids keep telling us it’s all boiling over and Katrina-level hurricanes are the norm now!

Oh, wait...

[MtnClimber]

But, global warming!!!

[OttawaFreeper]

But, but Uncle Mikey told me back in 2005 that there were going to be Katrina sized storms all the time going forward because of evil Bush and GOP.

[Snickering Hound]

Could also mean a wicked winter ahead.

We’ve always been at war with EastAsia, and this news of a cool Atlantic is just confirmation that Global Warming will kill us all.

[smokingfrog]

Sounds good to me. I’ve been through a few and don’t want to see anything like another Harvey for the rest of my life.

Joe Bastardi (Weatherbell) says a VERY mild hurricane season; cool water where it’s normally warm.

This will also translate into lots of SNOW this winter for those of us that get snow...but he’s not telling us THAT part, yet...just hinting around about it.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Joe Bastardi is the ONLY weatherman I trust. 100%!

This is all my fault. I went out and bought a duel-fuel generator this spring. So this means I will never get to use it since I now have one.

Back when Charlie came through and cut a path across Florida and destroyed Punta Gorda, Charlie was aimed right for our community two clicks off St. Pete Beach. We got a mandatory evac, so we drove to my in laws in Orlando. I told my wife to take a last look at our condo, because it wouldn’t be there in 6 hours.

Instead of hitting St. Pete, it smacked Punta Gorda and Ft. Meyers, and ran right over us in Orlando; tore the whole neighborhood up. It took us 9 hours to get home again. Tornadoes were spinning off everywhere, even well after the hurricane passed.

I figure this reprieve was caused by Trump buying the rights to the weather machine and dialing back the “disaster” settings just a bit!

[metmom]

Now we’re screwed.

Whatever the *experts* predict, they almost always get it wrong.

[Hojczyk]

It was a tornado in the hurricane that did in Punta Gorda...

It’s boiling in SoCal, but it’s thanks to some high pressure system parked to our east.

[LYDIAONTARIO]

Oh no! Sharks will get cold! ‘Sweaters for Sharks” movement will surge!

[ScottinVA]

It’s boiling in SoCal, but it’s thanks to some high pressure system parked to our east.

Ditto for the North State as well.
