Claim:  Michigan Tornadoes Linked to Climate ChangeRobert Vislocky, Ph.D.

It’s getting too easy to debunk the Guardian and their alarmist claims. The latest one is that recent tornadoes in Michigan are “undeniably” linked to climate change:




https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/may/25/michigan-climate-crisis

No historical tornado data was presented and no climate scientists were interviewed. There are only the usual anecdotal claims and appeals to emotion. The only connection to climate change was through a reference toward the end of the article citing the increased frequency of billion dollar disasters (BDD) in the US. Of course the BDD data is severely flawed as it doesn’t take into account the fact that property values have risen 50% greater than the CPI index they use and that there’s way more property & people in harms way today vs. 1980 (among other flaws like increases in insurance participation rates over time).

So are tornadoes becoming more frequent or intense in Michigan? The data says no, and it’s not even close!

I've been around Michigan almost 79 years and I don't notice anything to suggest an increase in tornados, except democrats, the media, and climate "scientists" saying so.
