Report links global warming, storms
Keay Davidson, Chronicle Science Writer

Have you seen the research that states, quite unequivocally I might
add, that the reason there are more bigger storms is that the
technology allowing for better eyeballing and dissecting storms has
caused over reporting of their strength.

The reverse of this is that storms before the advent of the
technological edge were under estimated as to their strength, size and
power - even in the number as satellites has given the modern
forecaster and scientist a tool to watch storms born, live and die in
remote areas of the earth.

Interesting concept.

Interesting, yes, but full of holes, so to speak. When the storm hits
an area that has weather instruments, even simple ones such as a
barometer and wind speed indicator, it is what it is.
