It seems there is a violent tropical cyclone waiting to happen in the Atlantic basin, and I think it will happen this year. It has now been 8 years since the last category 5 hurricane has occurred in the Atlantic basin - and I reckon there is a record storm brewing. Also, the last category 5 hurricane to hit the USA was in 1992 - symbolizing that there is a category 5 landfall overdue for the USA. There is a clear trend showing, particulary in the Atlantic basin - if an area that normally has an active climate for hurricanes, and there aren't any for years on end - such as Florida, for example (last hurricane was Wilma in 2005), then there seems to almost certainly be the opportunity for a devastating tropical cyclone to hit that location. The last Cuban category 5 was in 1924 - long overdue for the next one. The latest historic storm was Sandy in 2012, which hit New York and surrounding states on October 29th, 2012. Overall, then, even though activity will be reduced until 2035, due to climate cycles in the Atlantic basin, there will be fewer storms - yet they will have the potential to become violent whilst active. It is only a matter of time until the next historic storm, and global warming computer models seem to support this view, with Atlantic hurricane activity peaking every 35 years, before then diminishing to a minimum, with fewer, but more powerful, hurricanes. I have a bad reputation for scaring people inappropriately when it comes to the weather - but I can see myself actually being right on this one... cat6 (worldsstrongetscyclone)
