No connection. Never has been. GW may have all sorts of effects, but not on hurricanes. All amateur theories we keep hearing are junk. We have been here before, I have shown people the way to the facts and statistics of hurricane research of the IPCC and the large hurricane institutes around the world and I am not going to repeat that. I will let CNN do the job or me this time.
If global warming were the cause of the increase in United States hurricane landfalls in 2004 and the overall increase in Atlantic basin major hurricane activity of the past ten years (1995-2004), one would expect to see an increase in tropical cyclone activity in the other storm basins as well (i.e., West Pacific, East Pacific, Indian Ocean, etc.)," the report said. "This has not occurred. "When tropical cyclones worldwide are summed, there has actually been a slight decrease since 1995."
