New Video: Climate and Hurricanes 2016
June 9, 2016
As the 2016 hurricane season gets underway in the northern hemisphere, the new “This is Not Cool” video features interview footage shot in December with Kerry Emanuel, one of the most widely quoted and well known hurricane experts in the world.
Nutshell: A warmer climate is expected to elevate the natural “speed limit” on hurricane/Tropical Cyclone wind speeds, and accompanying storm surge and destructiveness. We may already be seeing this play out.
Also appearing are scientists Kevin Trenberth, Jeff Masters, Michael Mann, Josh Willis, and the Weather Underground’s crack journo Bob Henson.
One more example of the kind of pithy and useful reporting that you can support here.
