    So if climate change starts off some freak wave of endless hurricanes… move to the equator got it

      Yes, you will be safe from hurricanes while you are baked alive by global warming.

      Well, unfortunately it’ll become a blistering hellscape.

      Well, it might fuck up the wind currents and allow even bigger storms that could cross the equator

        I thought the issue was the coriolis effect would reverse the hurricane’s spin direction? Could one survive this and reform?

          Give it a couple decades and we may just find out!

          I’m wondering if the Coriolis effect is directly responsible for the spin direction of storms or if it’s only responsible for the spin of the wind currents, which then forces the storms in one direction or the other.

          If it’s indirect, then large changes in the currents might allow those storms 🤔

      At least until the magnetic poles flip and then all hell breaks loose (again).
