It’s a good thing that Gen. Henry Robert protected Galveston from future disasters by curbing their CO2-producing fossil fuel and cement use… or something.
John Houghton’s scam book “Global Warming a Complete Briefing” has a chart that gauges hurricanes on damage in dollars, and he doesn’t adjust for inflation. He rates the Galveston storm as minor, of course. I’m sure it would be major if he did adjust for inflation, but that would go against The Cause.
People need to gauge hurricanes on wind speed, pressure, storm surge, etc. to be relevant to global warming. Number of people killed and damage to human property is not how you measure a hurricane.
But that doesn’t make big scary news stories that can be used to scare people into going in the direction the politicians (and their puppet masters) want.
The book, “Issac’s Storm”, gave a very good description of the intensity of the storm. I remember the snakes hung up in fences afterward and they bit people in the water during the surge.

Guess it was the warming oceans!
Now that was a perfect storm of circumstances.

Reblogged this on the WeatherAction Blog.
The rebuilding of Galveston is a fascinating story http://www.texasalmanac.com/topics/history/galvestons-response-hurricane-1900. Following this devastating storm the ground level of the city was built up by as much as 16′ of sand and a sea wall constructed.
No attempt was made to blame this disaster on trace amounts of a life giving gas.

The lying never stops for warmists.

“Number of people killed and damage to human property is not how you measure a hurricane.” And has nothing to do with scientific measurement.
Exactly. Somehow the climate astrologers don’t figure in the fact that there’s more people in the way and things cost more.
