Looking for "PROOF" in all the wrong places.

Hyperbole(ˈ/haɪˈpɜːrbəli/; Greek: ὑπερβολή, huperbolḗ, from ὑπέρ (hup�r, "above") + βάλλω (b�llō, "I throw")) is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. In rhetoric, it is also sometimes known as auxesis (lit. "growth"). In poetry and oratory, it emphasizes, evokes strong feelings, and creates strong impressions. As a figure of speech, it is usually not meant to be taken literally.[1][2]

This important update from mrctv.org:

Obama called for every American to put together a disaster supply kit and evacuation plan because climate change is bringing "more powerful and more devastating" hurricanes to the U.S. � even though the U.S. hasn't been hit with a major hurricane in more than a decade.

Announcing the June 1 start of hurricane season, Obama warned Americans to prepare for imminent climate change-caused hurricanes:

"All of us have seen the heartbreak, the damage and, in some case, the loss of life that hurricanes can cause. And as climate continues to change, hurricanes are only going to become more powerful and more devastating.

Sorry build, it just depends where you are.

I grew up in tornado land and every house had a basement. I lived in hurricane places and typhoon places and at the end of the end of the day, the weather phenom is the same. But I digress to weatherman.

Interesting Forecast......This forecast calls for a slightly higher number of named storms and hurricanes than an outlook issued earlier in April by Colorado State University (CSU) that is headed by Dr. Phil Klotzbach. That forecast said the Atlantic was expected to see 13 named storms, six hurricanes and two major hurricanes.

The 2016 Atlantic hurricane season is expected to be the most active since 2012, according to a forecast released Friday......

A total of 14 named storms, eight hurricanes and three major hurricanes are forecast during the coming season......

This is greater than the 30-year historical average of 12 named storms, six hurricanes and three major hurricanes for the Atlantic basin......

http://www.hurricanescience...tornadoes/

A tornado is a violently rotating column of air that extends from the bottom of a cumuliform cloud, such as a thunderstorm, to the ground. Tornadoes are often (but not always) visible as a funnel cloud. It is important to never confuse a tornado with a hurricane or other tropical cyclone because tornadoes and hurricanes are very different phenomena. Perhaps the only similarity between tornadoes and hurricanes is that they both contain strong rotating winds that can cause damage.

Sandy wasn't a hurricane. And sorry the people in NY NJ were to short sighted to know what was coming but that is their fault., they forgot their own history and therefore repeated it.
