I challenge anyone to find evidence that shows we're having more hurricanes now than in the past.

My own suggestion is that the media is more widespread thus events such as this are far more likely to be reported than in the past AND the planet is developing, mankind is spreading, thus any hurricane is likely to do more damage than in the past.

All of this makes it seem as though things are getting to doomsday proportions when in reality nothing much is changing.
