It's a bunch of nonsense. I've researched some Natural History, and the big storms and droughts of the past were the same as those of today, perhaps worse in some cases. What's changed is that people have started living in larger cities in the MidWest ("Tornado Alley") and building more densely along coastal areas, especially in Florida, the Carolinas, and the Northeast. Also modern weather forecasting and record keeping only began in the late 19th century, leaving thousands of years of weather unrecorded upon which to compare.And there's a reason that Hurricane, West Virginia is thus named:https://www.hurricanewv.com/government/new-about-hurricane/ See for example too:https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/outreach/history/https://www.spc.noaa.gov/faq/tornado/killers.htmlhttp://www.hurricanescience.org/history/storms/pre1900s/1502/https://www.weather.gov/okx/1938HurricaneHomehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_New_England_hurricanes#:~:text=17th%20century,-The%20estimated%20track&text=August%2025%2C%201635%20%E2%80%93%20The%20Great,magnitude%20was%20the%201938%20hurricane.
