Atlantic hurricane drought becomes lesson in climate science
Original: Opinion | The Atlantic’s hurricane drought offers a lesson in climate science
The Atlantic basin has gone through an unusual stretch with few major hurricanes, and an opinion piece argues this quiet period offers a lesson in how climate science should be communicated. The argument is that short-term calm should not be mistaken for evidence against long-term climate trends, and that natural variability still shapes individual seasons even as warming continues.
Why now: The unusually quiet Atlantic hurricane season has prompted debate about what it does and does not say about climate change.
