Did Global Warming Reduce the Impacts of Sandy? ‘Rather than anthropogenic global warming making Sandy worse, it could have actually lessened its intensity and impacts’
'What virtually everyone does agree upon is any influence of AGW on hurricane characteristics is not detectable in today's climate...Others concluded that global warming contracted, the jet stream, flattened it over E. U.S., & sped it up a bit—characteristics, which, along with a decreased temp gradient, if applied to Sandy, would have combined to produce a less intense post tropical storm system than if global warming had not been occurring'
