“Several NDBC stations in the region, both on the shore and offshore, confirm that Florence never produced sustained winds reaching hurricane threshold”
Trumps fault.
It's how they can control the attention they get in the media.
Right, I know it's pathetic... but how many times in your memory have they predicted disastrous events that in the end, don't reach the level of danger they predict?
Because of Katrina, they now think that they have cart blanche to hype the weather to their hearts content
I’ve long suspected that the media inflates numbers to reach their climate change narrative goals.
Just look at how the NHC has started to define “subtropical storms,” even going so far as to name them. When the Univ. of Colorado comes out with numbers at the beginning of the season, they’re overly optimistic and wind up defining them down by mid-season. I wouldn’t be surprised if they start naming invests just to reach their numbers, because as the sun has gotten damn-near silent, our planet is going to cool, and hurricanes are going to become less frequent.
Meanwhile the leftist media will continue to breathlessly report how we’re all destroying the environment and that hurricanes are the harvest we are reaping. Spare me!
