CBS News Frets Climate Change Will Increase Hurricane Risk In Chicago. It Won’t
by Linnea Lueken  Oct 24, 2024 

A recent article posted by CBS News, Chicago asks the question on nobody’s mind: “Will climate change put the Chicago area at heightened risk for hurricanes?”. [emphasis, links added]

This question and the thinking behind it are ridiculous.


Although the remnants of tropical storms and hurricanes can reach Chicago and have in the past, there is little reason to think that climate change will make it more likely to occur in the future or more severe if or when it does.

CBS claims that the recent hurricane Helene “brought tropical flooding to inland regions not typically at risk,” warning that it’s now clear that “climate disasters can happen anywhere.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Yes, remnants do blow through Chicago on rare occasion.  I was in Chicago when one came in.  You think Chicago is the windy city, it was brutal that day!  The next day, the Edmond Fitzgerald was sunk in Superior.
