2024 Hurricane Season: No Long-Term Trends In Global Cyclone Activity
by Paul Homewood, guest post Jan 28, 2025
Today, the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) published its periodic review of global hurricane activity. [emphasis, links added]
The review is based on the findings of key scientific bodies and compares them to sensationalist news reporting and popular perceptions.
Trends in landfalling Atlantic/western Pacific hurricanes have been stable or decreasing since 1950.
No global trend in overall hurricane frequency since reliable records began in the 1970s.
The apparent increase in the number of hurricanes since the 19th century has been due to changes in observation practices rather than an actual increase.
