If they are silly enough to stay in Florida when a hurricane looks likely to hit, they\'d qualify for a Darwin Award.

That\'s fewer Gnatguys and John Larkins in the next generation. Better education might be a kinder, gentler way to get there, but Americans don\'t seem to want to pay for that.

There are plenty of storms. GnatTurd is clueless. But tha fact was
established in this group years ago. We (the globe)just saw the
biggest typhoon ever.

John Larkin doesn\'t know about ice core data. The Antarctic ice cores go back almost a million years

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_core

There are other deposits of layered materials that go back even further. The instrumentation you use to extract the historical data is pretty subtle and a lot of it has only been developed recently, so in that sense what we know now does reflect the development of better instruments, but that doesn\'t seem to be what he was trying to say.

I read (and of course now can\'t find) an article on a storm in the UK
about 1,000 years ago that washed away several square miles of
shoreline. The write up was very interesting in terms of damage done to
the country at the time.

I\'ve hunted for it for a while with no luck - can\'t think of core words
from the article that would separate it from all the other stories of
storm damage.

No, we don\'t infer climate change because of inaccurate records of
old weather; we do it because of accurate records of old weather.

.... like an ice pond that produced four-foot thick blocks a couple of centuries ago,
now staying ice-free through winter
....and plants that bloomed at dates which do not match current crop observations

You\'d be hard pressed to rival the time and temperature precision of
a daffodil deciding when it\'s time to bloom.

Biggest in the historical record seems to be a better way to describe it
and what is scary is that we will continue to break the records again
and again with increasing frequency and ferocity of storms.

A warmer atmosphere carrier more water vapour and more power with it.

Is this the one you mean in 1287 that did for some of the Cinque ports?

When the extent of the storm spans the entire Pacific Ocean, that\'s kinda a hint the storm is maximal. How could it possibly get any bigger?

There are various forms of life on this plant that imprint in their DNA every bit of sensory experience throughout their lifetime. One day science will be able to mine this prehistoric DNA to recreate images of the environment exactly as these creatures saw it.

Deaths from hurricanes are way down from historical levels, because we
have better warning and transport. Property damage is up because we
have so many luxury beachfront homes and hotels that have insurance.

The biggest killer in US history was the great Galveston storm of
1900. There are a couple of good books, like Isaacs Storm and A
Weekend in September.

https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/outreach/history/#galveston

Galveston now has a enormous ugly concrete seawall. Nice town
otherwise, but has the usual dreadful gulf coast climate, with lots of
bugs.

Mammals split from other tetrapod vertebrates about 220 millions years ago. A a and Gnatguy may be on a devolving branch, but the reversion back to the mean won\'t have got back to the lizards yet. And their problem isn\'t that their perceptions are primitive, it\'s that they perceive what they want to see, rather than anything that has anything much to do with reality. It\'s an evolutionary dead end, but they aren\'t dying out quite as fast as one would wish.

No, we don\'t infer climate change because of inaccurate records of
old weather; we do it because of accurate records of old weather.

Funny. Where the accurate records of storm intensity, like peak wind
speed and mimimum pressure and size? Time span = \"ever.\"

In ice cores? Fossilized flowers?

The first reliable thermometer was apparently invented in 1714.
Accurate worldwide measurement and record keeping came a lot later.
But 24/7 RTD measurement and logging is pretty recent.
