Dr. Neil Frank injects some much needed sanity into "climate change" - hurricane claims

Hurricane Ian “rapidly transformed from a relatively weak storm into a strong one, [a] phenomenon that has become more common” due to climate change.

So reported the New York Times in its daily email newsletter. It also said, “Ian embodies several of the major hurricane trends in recent years, as the world copes with the effects of climate change. It’s a strong storm -- and strong storms are becoming more common in the Atlantic Ocean, as its surface water has warmed. . . .

Unfortunately, the tragedy is compounded by climate-change activists who are using it for political purposes. They blame Ian on global warming. Headlines in the mainstream media claimed Ian was the fourth-strongest hurricane ever to hit Florida and that its strong winds were caused by global warming. Both statements are wrong.

Neil Frank is probably the most brilliant meterologist there is.

“Sanity” and “climate change” should not be mentioned in one sentence. The world is going to die homeless, hungry and unemployed but under a clear sky.

Hurricane Ian “rapidly transformed from a relatively weak storm into a strong one, [a] phenomenon that has become more common” due to climate change.

All the weather reports I watched as this thing developed said it would strengthen rapidly when it hit the warm waters of the Gulf. Not one of them mentioned "climate change."

Good grief.

I think Nazi Pelosi, Xao Bi-Dung, Smuck Schumer and Adam Shit caused this hurricane. Let’s get rid of them and see how things go in the future. Not doing this is just too dangerous and risks homosexuals and transgenders. That is no joke man.

I always liked him as a weatherman in Houston. Just the facts. No drama.

FTA:
“ Note well: all these [several earlier] hurricanes occurred before SUVs, so CO2 and the warming it purportedly causes were not their cause. “

Dr. Neil Frank always been my favorite Director at NHC. The goofy guy at the
Weather Channel and former Director, Dr. Knabb, is a Climate Changer. So is the other so-called hurricane expert, Dr. Greg Postel.

When incorrect information is a mistake, it is wrong. When it is deliberate it is a LIE.
