How climate change worsened Hurricane Isaias
Hurricane Isaias, which struck the Caribbean and the US East Coast in 2020, is being examined for the role climate change played in intensifying it. Reporting argues that warmer ocean waters and other warming-driven conditions made the storm stronger and wetter than it otherwise would have been, adding Isaias to the growing list of hurricanes linked to a changing climate.
Why now: Interest in how global warming is intensifying hurricanes keeps resurfacing whenever storms like Isaias are analysed.
