Reply to comment by techhouseliving in La Niña, which worsens Atlantic hurricanes and Western droughts, is gone by LifeTableWithChairs

No, La Niña worsens Atlantic hurricanes, as in makes them stronger. If it’s gone, Atlantic hurricanes shouldn’t be as strong.

Shouldn't be...but they are lol

Down vote me all you want, but you're only showing your ignorance, folks.

" Although hurricanes occur more often during La Niña episodes, significant tropical weather events have occurred during the neutral phase. For example, the record shattering 2005 hurricane season that included Katrina and Rita occurred during the neutral phase. Hurricane Andrew, the most destructive United States hurricane of record, made landfall along the Gulf coast during a neutral phase of the El Niño/Southern Oscillation in 1992."

That doesn’t make any sense considering it was still in effect this past hurricane season. In fact, 2022 had below average number of major hurricanes.

If they’re not as strong then that nuke idea should work

This finally our chance, ready the nukes! The hurricane will never see it coming!

Did you just blow in from stupid town off them La Niña winds?

No, but the weather history backs it. Like, I don't understand why it's so hard for people to grasp that just because La Niña ends so do strong hurricane. The 2005 hurricane season is a great example.
