The democrat stenographers are wallowing in their climate punch; Hurricane Ian didn’t get to Cat 5 before landfall, and they desperately wanted that. But they’ve still got their extreme weather narrative. or do they? Recent research suggests that’s not happening either.

And let’s be clear. These researchers appear to want a different result than the one at which they arrived (reformatted).
This article reviews recent bibliography on time series of some extreme weather events and related response indicators in order to understand whether an increase in intensity and/or frequency is detectable. The most robust global changes in climate extremes are found in yearly values of heatwaves (number of days, maximum duration and cumulated heat), while global trends in heatwave intensity are not significant.
Daily precipitation intensity and extreme precipitation frequency are stationary in the main part of the weather stations. Trend analysis of the time series of tropical cyclones show a substantial temporal invariance and the same is true for tornadoes in the USA.
At the same time, the impact of warming on surface wind speed remains unclear. The analysis is then extended to some global response indicators of extreme meteorological events, namely natural disasters, floods, droughts, ecosystem productivity and yields of the four main crops (maize, rice, soybean and wheat).
None of these response indicators show a clear positive trend of extreme events. In conclusion on the basis of observational data, the climate crisis that, according to many sources, we are experiencing today, is not evident yet. It would be nevertheless extremely important to define mitigation and adaptation strategies that take into account current trends.
They looked at all the reporting, data, observation, documentation, etc., and could not conclude that we are experiencing more extreme weather events. It’s not happening.
Slow your roll, Cultists.
No one denies that we have these events or that they can be extreme. But we’ve always had them. But based on the evidence compiled by meteorologists, and climate scientists, the actual scientific record, does not support the claim of increased extreme events, and claims to the contrary, at least according to these researchers, are nonsense. It hasn’t happened (yet!).
They actually say “yet.” As if they expected it to be true and are holding out hope.
Conclusion?
Al Gore, Tom Steyer, and NOAA will have to hire more Winston Smiths to “correct” the record. Otherwise, rogue researchers will continue to discover, much to their surprise, that this facet of the global climate fraud is political science fraud, not climate science.
One more point. The stenographers and their muses (the Democrat party) are still working the political science, but September is the busiest month for Hurricane landfills in the US. We had zero in July and August and only one in September. And none are forming in the Atlantic as I write this. Consider that while Dems claim this is climate change and that they alone can fix it.
Fix what? The incredibly low incidence of named storms and hurricane landfills? Or by fix, do you mean break, because Democrats destroy everything they touch?
