California Braces As Hilary Upgraded
Aug 19^th, 2023 at 8:53am

"These storms that are forming down south and off of Mexico and Central America, could get more strong, more quickly, due to climate change. And so on the random chance that they do go through that weird track where they actually end up affecting the West Coast they may be stronger," Kossin said.

Hilary likely is driven by climate change. Global warming makes weather events worse.

Proof?

Not according to the IPCC or EM-DAT data

But if you think you have proof. post it. And NO the LATimes is not an authority. Wink

And Corinne Portell has alarmist experts on speed dial. Who knew.
