Poor Texans. If only they believed in Human Forced Global Warming...

What?

This is the part I think is relevant of what I said:

"storms might not gain as much energy and the flooding could be contained"

In other words, we should be seeing hurricanes and typhoon that are much stronger than in recent history because the storms will be going over waters that are on average warmer than the surrounding air. If we had started doing something about it in the early 2000's when it was completely obvious of the MAT warming global trends, we might be further along in renewal energy technology advances , cost reductions, and therefore its universal adoption.

Paradoxically, we are seeing fewer storms, but they are of greater intensity. The analysis/study below is three years old. When you add the years 2014, 2015 and 2016 and the beginning of 2017 to this study below, each year is breaking all previous average temperatures with consecutive MAT rises across the globe.

New Evidence That Climate Change Is Altering Hurricane Season as You Know It

"A new report finds climate change is likely impacting hurricane season in two contradictory ways.

The new research was published this week in Nature Climate Change by Florida State georgraphy professor Jim Elsner and Namyoung Kang, deputy director of the National Typhoon Center in South Korea. The study finds that warmer ocean temperatures, caused by climate change, may be fueling stronger hurricanes, while at the same time, creating fewer storms...

We are seeing fewer storms of greater intensity? The first storm to hit in a long time and it's a category 3. Wow. Weep for the future.
 
People just don't know. More fires, more extreme hurricanes and typhoons, more extreme tornadoes...

I don't know if removing oil from the ground causes earthquakes. We know that fracking does.

The press wants to make a big deal about a "Cat 3" hurricane. When I was in the military stationed in the Pacific, I experienced 5 such storms. 120 mph winds, while not inconsequential... damage of course but not generally catastrophic... are not that big of a deal. Cat 4 & 5 now, different story.
