Another Bust

To the prophets of doom, death and destruction this hurricane season has been another bust. The last couple years, we have been treated to continued predictions of devastating hurricane after devastating hurricane. Not so this year. There have been thirteen named storms this year, with a whopping four hurricanes. Sure Mexico got hammered by two of them, but it was nowhere near the predictions of destruction.

The global warming crowd has been saying for years that we will have more and more hurricanes. It seems to me (but, I'm not an expert) that we are heading into a cycle where the number and intensity of tropical storm systems decreases.
