As the ocean temperature is an important element in hurricane formation, the results of climate change will include a powerful generation of hurricanes and storms, at a higher frequency.
The power of hurricanes increased with 50% over the last 30 years, a number that is connected with the rising temperature of the oceans worldwide.
Warmer water lead to more extreme weather including devastating storms.
The last big hurricane that affected this area of florida did alot of damage to the building where I live. The 9 foot glass windows on the first floor were smashed and blown out by 110 mph wind. The lobby was fill of ocean water and sand. The furniture was taken away by the ocean waves. It seems like hurricanes are getting even stronger and causing more destruction.

ReplyDeletewell we did not have a hurricane but we sure do have ALOT of rain. The roof was being fixed this week and it was not finished. Friday night's rain let so much water into certain areas of the building. The stair well has water dripping from the top floor to the garage (thats 14 floors dripping with water!!). I happen to be during home late that night and my road was majorlly flooded. I was driving through 2 feet of water!!! Im looking forward to the rain ceasing.
ReplyDeleteThat picture that you have up is crazy. The storm that we had here in Boca this past weekend was pretty crazy too where they had to shut down roads because of the water flooding the streets. When i left campus on friday night my car was making waves because we were in such deep water. Blog looks very nice keep up the good work
