They named another sub-tropical storm as a "tropical" storm.

These folks are sad - that makes three this year.

Gotta make the data fit the prediction don't 'cha know.

Climate change isn't a "prediction" it's a fact. In fact, the climate
has been changing constantly since the planet was originally formed
("created", if you prefer).

There are several dozen major indicators that the earth is in a
warming trend, again, and we know for a fact that it has warmed and
cooled many times during geological history. You can't look at a
single year's hurricane activity- or lack of it- and draw extensive
conclusions. You have to look at a long term trend, not your local
weather report or whether one of the several dozen indicators is
temporarily inactive. Doing so would be a lot like the guy who is
driving his car through six inches of standing water on the road but
sticks his hand out the window during a momentary lapse in
precipitation and (feeling no rainfall) pronounces that the drought
continues.

Do you believe that climate is not absolute? If so, do you believe
that it appears to be warming more rapidly now than in the past?

I believe that climate changes over the course of time, has done so in
the past and will do so in the future. I believe it is currently
warming more rapidly than geological evidence suggests it has warmed
in previous eras. Do I assign all of the blame to industrial
activities? No, but neither do I find it entirely improbable that we
may have influenced our environment in a way that exacerbates the
warming trend.

Coupled with stories like the attempted ban on certain types of
boating on some lakes in Alabama, it isn't unreasonable to fear that
concerns over "global warming" may ultimately change the ways in which
we are allowed to boat.

Where do you get your weather info?

We're now up to 13 tropical storms for the year (not 3).

They named the latest one after Mrs. Krause. :-)

(Sept. 25) -- A tropical depression strengthened into Tropical Storm
Karen early Tuesday in the open Atlantic Ocean, where it posed no
immediate threat to land, and a new tropical depression formed in the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico.

NOAA A satellite photo shows Tropical Storm Karen over the Atlantic
Ocean on Tuesday. As Karen strengthened, another weather system --
Tropical Storm Jerry, in the northern Atlantic -- weakened and
dissipated.
1 of 12
At 5 p.m. EDT, Karen was centered about 1,430 miles east of the
Windward Islands, with top sustained winds near 40 mph, the National
Hurricane Center said.

It was moving toward the west-northwest near 15 mph and was expected
to strengthen over the next 24 hours. Tropical storm-force wind
extended outward up to 45 miles from Karen's center.

On its current course, Karen was expected to hit two low-pressure
areas and meteorologists were unsure how they would affect the storm.

The 13th depression of the season formed late Tuesday, and could
become Tropical Storm Lorenzo on Wednesday, forecasters said. A
tropical storm watch may be required for a portion of the Gulf Coast
of Mexico by Wednesday morning. At 5:15 p.m. the storm was located
about 190 miles east of Tampico, Mexico and moving toward the
southwest near 3 mph with top sustained winds near 30 mph.

It was not expected to move much over the 24 hours.

Elsewhere, Tropical Storm Jerry broke up over cooler water in the
Atlantic late Monday. Meteorologists expected the remnants of the
storm, which formed Sunday, to be absorbed by a larger non-tropical
low pressure system.
