New Type Of El Nino Could Mean More Hurricanes Make Landfall »

Posted By ameliog 4 months ago in Science & Technology

El Niño years typically result in fewer hurricanes forming in the Atlantic Ocean. But a new study suggests that the form of El Niño may be changing potentially causing not only a greater number of hurricanes than in average years, but also a greater chance of hurricanes making landfall, according to climatologists at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

      I've been thinking this is an El Nino year. Lower humidity here in Houston but NO CLOUDS (yikes that sun is something without a break in Houston),,,, no afternoon rains to break the heat (we are in some drought this summer) and temperatures that are above 100 for days on end.

      Pulllleeeeze give me back the brutal High Humidity, clouds, afternoon rains of 6 inches and temps in the mid 90s.
