Atlantic hurricanes are over twice as likely to quickly intensify into major storms in the past two decades compared to a comparable period in the late 20th century, according to research published Thursday in the journal Scientific Reports.
Author Andra Garner of New Jersey’s Rowan University analyzed more than 800 tropical cyclones originating in the Atlantic since 1971. She found that this century, storms grew from Category 1 minor storms to major hurricanes—those with winds of at least 111 miles per hour — within 24 hours 8.1 percent of the tine. Comparatively, storms only intensified that quickly 3.2 percent of the time between 1971 and 1990.

Lies, damn lies and statistics
Global warming hysteria from an ultra-liberal headline screamer.
Invalid study. It Has to go back at least 500 years to be a valid study.
Because God said so. Climate is in God’s plan. No one can change it.
OH NO! We’re doomed again!!! It’s little Greta the Swedish Meatball’s fault.
“Atlantic hurricanes are over twice as likely to quickly intensify into major storms in the past two decades compared to a comparable period in the late 20th century, according to research published Thursday in the journal Scientific Reports.”
Now that the ekspurts have spoken we can rest easy in the certainty that then next twenty years will see fewer and weaker hurricanes.
What’s also unprecedented is the number of leftists abusing the word ‘unprecedented’.
This is supposed to pass for comprehensive research regarding intensity of hurricane formation?
Yes but those were not comparable years.
I’d like the same crowd to tell me what day this winter it will snow in my front yard? I’ll wait..........
That’s ehat happens when you cherry-pick your data to fit a time frame to make your narrative look true. Go all the way back, and you’ll find a different outcome.
Only the Atlantic? Sooooo, there’s worse climate change in the Atlantic than there is in the Pacific? Do they even know what causes rapid intensification? Does climate change affect ocean currents or the jet stream? Just asking because according to the Weather Channel, everything is affected by worsening climate change. Even your monthly, if you know what I mean. Or your migraines. It’s become just absolutely ridiculous.
Cherry picking your data to get the result you intended to get.

Hurricanes seem consistent over time.
Named storms are up, but I wonder if the criteria for that hasn’t changed.
2005 was a one off bad year.
