Has global warming caused more storms?

A recent study by the National Center for Atmospheric Research reports the following:

"The global warming influence provides a new background level that increases the risk of future enhancements in hurricane activity," co-author Kevin Trenberth wrote in the study.

A statement issued by the center said that the study "contradicts recent claims that natural cycles are responsible for the upturn in Atlantic hurricane activity since 1995. It also adds support to the premise that hurricane seasons will become more active as global temperatures rise."

The study goes on to say that global warming is responsible for about 50% of the temperature rise that fuels storms.

Yes, it's because global warming cools when it rises into the sky to create clouds and make more weather of hurricanes and rain. It's normal and it nature's cycle.

No. According to that renowned meteorologist George W. Bush, there is no such thing as global warming. He believes that bad weather, like all other problems in the world, is somehow caused by liberals. He also believes in the tooth fairy.

Yes, undoubtedly. Places all around the world are experiencing bizarre and extreme weather. In my city, it was 107 degrees today, and I can't remember a time that it's ever been that hot. Our climate is changing rapidly, and we need to do what we can to stop it before it's too late. Go to climatechange.org to see what you can do to help. I also recommend the books "An Inconvenient Truth", and "The Weather Makers".

whilst, as now, there's a finite quantity of water and rainfall is taken as averaged suitable around the globe, there nevertheless must be a finite quantity of water in equilibrium, differences in rainfall development could perhaps happen, however the finite quantity will constantly proceed to be, if lots of the rain is locked up as ice or snow, then ought to it soften, it ought to have here effects; North pole areas, this is going to soften and make no longer the slightest distinction in average top of oceans with the aid of fact ice melts into water and its Mole MASS in keeps to be the comparable: Ice in the South pole has its MASS pressing down upon the forged landmass this is that if actuality be told a floating Tectonic plate upon our Earths crust, eliminate the burden of the ice and this crust will alter itself into its own equilibrium and as in the previous the ice will have not any effect upon the waters top and all tectonic plates will choose the flow in equilibrium. As for storms, there are tens of millions each and each year, so even dry places will ultimately get a glut of water, storms are with the aid of rigidity ameliorations attempting ever extra to realize equilibrium around the globe, yet, with the aid of SUNS effect it may by no ability happen with the aid of fact on a daily basis as one section is warmed up the sunlight ultimately subsides or is obscured with the aid of cloud and the cooling starts, ensuing in rigidity drop. Its a marvelous worldwide with out political interferences and tarnished technology.

global warming is natural just like global freezing (the ice age) it has been really stormy around here too (Indiana) but its only due to the cleaning cycle the earth is going through to try to repair itself from the damage we've done..

That's a fact.... just the melting of our planet's poles is pourring tons and tons of fresh water into the sea.... the level of the sea rises. ( More water equals more evaporation )... and with that more coulds, more variations of our atmosperic presure, and more storms....

no, the weather goes in cycles called el nino and la nina. Different areas have different numbers of years to the cycle.

Definitely. The more important question is how much of it is due to human activity and how much is part of earth's cycle?

could be. id say yes
