Galveston was a flat island just a few feet above sea level in 1900. After that storm they not only built the Sea Wall but they also raise the entire livable portion of the island several feet.OH... so in 1900 when over 6,000 people died in a Hurricane (again remember this was before Global warming folks)
there were few hurricanes evidently. Wow... what a correlation Mr. Sun Worshipper!

However to the point, there is no study that can prove the small amount of warming attributed to mans burning of fuel has increase the strength or frequency of Atlantic or Gulf based storms. That's not to say it hasn't, just that no one has been able to measure it.
