Excerpt:
A lot of people seem to be interpreting this as global-warming hype, but it's probably just bureaucratic mission creep. If you're the National Hurricane Center, you need hurricanes to stay in business. If hurricanes fall off, you're tempted to cook the books just a bit. Ditto for the rest of the weather establishment. Blizzards are okay, tornadoes good for a bit of quick fun, but hurricanes are the real money-maker, combining intense fearfulness with multiday longevity like nothing else.
