Probably a good idea to stop pointing to specific weather events as evidence of impending doom, because for all of their specific destructiveness, they have had essentially no impact on humanity’s general way of life.
I’m not saying hurricanes and droughts and floods aren’t bad, nor that they won’t get worse, but if you set the bar for catastrophe at the current level, a lot of people are going to decide they can easily live with that.
