From Watts Up With That?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guest essay by Larry Hamlin<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After\u00a0nearly 4 decades of Democrat driven<\/a>\u00a0flawed and failed politically contrived climate\u00a0alarmist propaganda claims of worsening global climate impacts NOAA\u2019s measured worldwide hurricane season science data for all year 2022 tropical storms shows that\u00a0global wide storms were\u00a0at their lowest strength levels in the last 42 years<\/a>\u00a0(since 1981) as shown by the ACE (Accumulated Cyclone Energy reflecting the combined frequency, intensity and duration of all storms) data below from Colorado\u00a0State University\u2019s\u00a0Department of Atmospheric Science which tracks NOAA\u2019s National Hurricane Center tropical storm data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The year 2022 global wide ACE data outcome is about 29% lower than the average over the 30 year-long (1991 through 2020) climatology period tracked by Colorado State University\u2019s Tropical Meteorology Project data base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This decades long measured global wide tropical storm declining strength data trend outcome contradicts the data deficient and unsupported climate alarmist claims that tropical storms and hurricanes are growing ever stronger because of \u201cclimate change\u201d that is falsely hyped by both the climate alarmist propaganda media and their Democrat political leaders.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, NOAA\u2019s science measured tropical storm data through year 2022 clearly demonstrates that global hurricanes are not trending stronger in numbers, duration or intensity in the\u00a0Northern Hemisphere<\/a>\u00a0Oceans,\u00a0Southern Hemisphere<\/a>\u00a0Oceans and\u00a0North Atlantic<\/a>\u00a0Ocean (as shown by ACE data graphs for these ocean regions below) despite the alarmist media concealment of this science data from public view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Northern Hemisphere year 2022 ACE is about 33.5% lower than the average of the 1991 to 2020 climatology period, the Southern Hemisphere year 2022 ACE is about 36% lower than the 1991 to 2020 climatology period and the North Atlantic year 2022 ACE is about 22.4% lower than the 1991 to 2020 climatology period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Northern Hemisphere Oceans and North\u00a0Atlantic Ocean year 2022 Colorado State\u00a0University Real Time TC\u00a0Statistics ACE profiles compared to the 1991 to 2020 climatology 30-year period are shown below that clearly display the\u00a0significantly\u00a0reduced year 2022 ACE levels despite flawed propaganda hype by climate alarmists and media to falsely fabricate claims of\u00a0increasing\u00a0storm strengths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Not only does the climate alarmist media conceal data clearly establishing the fact that global and ocean region hurricanes and tropical storms are not trending stronger they are also grossly misrepresenting the trend in global weather storm costs by erroneously using absolute dollar cost trend comparisons between years instead of using comparisons of these costs configured as a percentage of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) data as established by the United Nations as the appropriate economic basis for making weather damage yearly cost comparison trends<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AP climate alarmist propaganda reporter Seth Borenstein and other alarmist reporters continue to falsely misrepresent cost trend comparisons of global weather events by deliberately concealing GDP global weather event cost trend data comparisons and incompetently reporting these costs in absolute dollars<\/a> as noted below from a recent AP article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the state of climate change in the 2020s that $268 billion in global disaster costs is a 12% drop from the previous year, where damage passed $300 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The number of U.S. weather disasters that caused at least $1 billion in damage is only at 15 through October and will likely end the year with 16 or 17, down from 22 and 20 in the last two years, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. But because of Hurricane Ian, overall damage amounts are probably going to end up in the top three in American history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weather disasters, many but not all of them turbocharged by human-caused climate change, are happening so frequently that this year\u2019s onslaught, which 20 years ago would have smashed records by far, now in some financial measures seems a bit of a break from recent years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The graphs below address that the total number of global weather events and their costs as expressed as a percentage of GDP are not trending upward which contradicts claims of increasing cost trends as erroneously hyped by climate alarmist flawed methodology which inappropriately use absolute dollars figures in attempting to make these cost trend comparisons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The graphs below represent analysis by Dr. Roger Pielke<\/a> that addresses the number of global events and costs as a percentage of GDP for global weather damage losses covering the period 1990 through 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The climate alarmist AP article noted above as well as many\u00a0other climate\u00a0alarmists articles trying to falsely portray\u00a0increasing severe weather events fail to address at all the lack of\u00a0increasing numbers and severity of U.S. tornadoes over the last 18 years (2005 through 2022) as shown by the\u00a0latest NOAA data<\/a>\u00a0below which shows only 5 of the last 18\u00a0 storm year totals were above the mean range with the two highest values occurring 12 to 15 years ago. Year 2022\u00a0totals were below the mean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The number of strongest tornadoes (EF3+) has in fact been consistently declining from 1970\u00a0through 2020 as shown by NOAA data in the\u00a0graph below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This blatant failure by the climate alarmist media to address the reality of declining weather event severity and instead conceal such data is just another example establishing the dishonesty and deception of climate alarmist propaganda articles in their efforts to hide measured science data from public view and instead rely upon science data unsupported claims and contrived propaganda.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOAA\u2019s measured hurricane strength data both globally and regionally over many decades exposes the flawed and failed climate alarmist claims that hurricanes are growing stronger as being both erroneous and dishonest. 

UN adopted methodology of measuring global weather storm cost trends using percentage of GDP assessments (instead of flawed assessments using absolute dollar yearly total comparisons as employed by climate alarmists) show the costs of global weather events are not trending upward as erroneously claimed by climate alarmists and media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
