Some of the folks who are "shrugging it off" are Hurricane scientists,
who know what is going on. They INSIST this is NOT due to any global
warming.



Well, the actual scientists are saying we simply don't have enough information
to know. They're not out there insisting GW is to blame or not to blame.



The only known effect global warming has on hurricanes is
that they are reduced when El Nino is active. Period.



Hurricanes depend on warm ocean water for their strength.


True. But the relationship is not linear and depends
on other factors, most notably vertical wind shear.
