Hey, while you are pointing out NOAA's public position statements on global warming and hurricanes, it seems to me that you may have not read, or forgot about, the research out of NOAA's GFDL , which clearly points to increases in high-end hurricanes, and more prolific rain-makers, in a higher C02 world.

What some of the climate researchers seem to be suggesting is that this higher activity is already underway. And most recently, some of the very latest research claims to have proof (subject to further peer-review, of course) that the AMO is real, but nothing more than background noise, when one plugs in the effects of global warming and the recent decreases of aerosols .
