Ever wonder where the 2006 hurricanes went?
Part of the: Common Arguments by Skeptics and Deniers series



The quick and dirty answer is that a dust storm called Calima (pictured above via satellite) killed off all of the hurricanes in the Atlantic. There was no comparable dust storm on the other side of the globe so the Pacific has been rip snorting hurricanes just as expected. A total of 30 tropical depressions and Typhoons (Asian term for hurricane) hit Asia. There were 25 in the east Pacific and 11 near Australia. This brings the 2006 Pacific tropical depression/typhoon count to a total of 66.

Good. All of that thermal energy from the Sun is being converted into mechanical energy. That means the Polar Bears won’t have to tread water as long, no?

I live in Florida and since Gore ( 2006 ) opened his big mouth saying that hurricanes would increase in both quantity and severity they have done NEITHER. They call that evidence in science dont they? It is now 2009 and this season will be the quietest of all. Keep that warming coming

Quiet in South Florida
