@arstechnica Un-beryl-ievable. Sorry. Couldn't help myself. Inappropriate, I know. But perhaps we do need a new word.

@arstechnica I live in Central Europe, so I'm not particularly worried about hurricanes because none of them ever happen here, but I'm worried about extreme weather events becoming more prevalent and more extreme all over the planet. How much can Industrial Civilisation take before it collapses? I think we're living at the beginning of the end of the Machine Age.

@arstechnica We need to stop pretending the calendar matters.

Hurricane season is any time the surface of the ocean is hot enough to spawn a storm.

That's the functional definition and if we never drop under that threshold temperature anymore then hurricane season never ends.
