"500-year hurricanes?' Give or take 490 years, as Ian showed in ravaging Florida"...

...it's the Frequency of those major storms, etc. that signify the impact of "Climate Change"...and the evidence is unmistakable..from the attached article...

-------------------
Climate change forecasters warned in the 1980s that hurricanes were going to hit us more frequently, and with more severity. It was a bold prediction to make at the time. After all, major hurricanes were on the decline from the 1950s to the 1980s, as well as the number of hurricanes per year, as my research from the National Hurricane Center weather has shown. But they’ve rebounded in frequency and size, both in the Atlantic and the Pacific.
-------------------
In terms of speed to ever strike the United States, Hurricane Ian is the fifth-most powerful storm recorded. Of the 16 strongest storms to ever make landfall, going back to the mid-1800s, seven are just from the last 20 years, with six of the most powerful happening just in the last five years. When it comes to intensity, six of the top 11 happened in the last 20 years. Before the deadly Category 5 Hurricane Wilma smashed South Florida, we had never even had a “W” storm before.
--------------------
We haven’t even discussed the death tolls. Hurricane Maria led to nearly 3,000 deaths of U.S. citizens in Puerto Rico, while another 2,000 lives were lost in Hurricane Katrina. With more people on the coasts, and more powerful storms, we can expect death tolls to get higher, especially as some politicians deny any of this is even taking place. And we can only image the catastrophe when a major city gets a direct hit from a Category 5. A government study of a potential “Hurricane Pam” found such a storm could generate 60,000 casualties.

There’s also the matter of damages, which can rack up charges of several billion each landfall.
-------------------

You're not very good at data research and analysis, Eli...you can't even see what's available right in front of you.
