Hurricane Matthew is barreling towards Florida, and left-leaning bloggers and scientists have already blamed the storm’s ferocity on, you guessed it, global warming.
“Matthew has already set a number of records — and global warming is giving it a boost,” Joe Romm, ThinkProgress’ climate editor, wrote.
“Hurricane Matthew, a record-shattering storm that is unusual for October, is a reminder of climate change’s potential to turn seasonal weather events into extreme, year-round threats,” echoed Huffington Post reporter Lydia O’Connor.
Matthew is indeed a powerful storm with maximum sustained wind speeds of 125 miles per hour, and it’s expected to strengthen to a Category 4 hurricane before making landfall in Florida Friday morning. Some scientists have said it’s a stark warning for future generations.
