Stories of Hurricane Beryl impacting the Caribbean and Gulf region highlights the importance of building climate resilience. In the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report 2024, Aon CEO Greg Case explained: “Amid increasing volatility and complexity, there is a significant opportunity for organizations to become more resilient to climate and catastrophe.” Read more: https://aon.io/45LrIqV #Climate #Hurricane #HurricaneBeryl

Hurricane Beryl just caused destruction across parts of the Caribbean, Yucatán Peninsula, and the Gulf Coast of the US, and set a new record as the earliest-forming Category 5 hurricane (in the Atlantic). According the UN’s climate body, the IPCC this is the sign of an alarming trend. Climate change is affecting hurricanes. Check out this BBC article by Mark Poynting on how rising temperatures are affecting these storms in several measurable ways… https://lnkd.in/gwaeEVwe #risingtemperatures #HurricaneBeryl #greenhousegasemissions

"Hurricane Helene has fed on record levels of upper ocean heat content in the Gulf, favoring very rapid intensification, Mann said. 'Helene is a poster-child for the ways that human-caused climate change is amplifying the coastal threat from intensified hurricanes combined with rising sea levels,' he added." It's encouraging to see more news and weather outlets reporting on the science linking #extremeweather to human-caused #climatechange. Now we just need more people to pay attention to that reporting. https://lnkd.in/eceUn2aC

Climate change plays a significant role in intensifying hurricanes like Debby. Hurricane Debby recently made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend region as a Category 1 storm, bringing with it the potential for record-setting rains, catastrophic flooding, and life-threatening storm surge. https://lnkd.in/dCmz_uuB This area is still recovering from Hurricane Idalia, which struck the same region last year and was the strongest hurricane to make landfall there in over 125 years. Climate change plays a significant role in intensifying hurricanes. As global warming continues, storms are becoming wetter, windier, and more intense. The warming ocean surface provides additional energy, fueling storm intensity and stronger winds. Additionally, a warmer atmosphere can hold more moisture, leading to increased rainfall during storms. In fact, during the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, climate change boosted hourly rainfall rates in hurricane-force storms by 8%-11%, according to an April 2022 study in the journal Nature Communications.. https://lnkd.in/dj6rmm6T Scientists at NOAA project that with 2°C of warming, hurricane wind speeds could increase by up to 10%, and the proportion of storms reaching Category 4 or 5 intensity may rise by about 10% this century. https://lnkd.in/du76H9bv It’s a critical reminder of the impact of climate change on extreme weather events.

"Hurricanes, or typhoons, form when warm ocean waters heat the air above them, causing the warm, moist air to rise. As this air ascends, it cools and condenses, forming clouds and creating a low-pressure zone beneath. This low pressure allows more air to rush in from surrounding areas. As the system continues to develop, it can lead to the formation of thunderstorms. If there are no strong winds to disrupt the process, the storm can intensify and evolve into a hurricane, or typhoon, depending on its location." https://lnkd.in/gA9Hmzap #climate #climatechange #eyeofthestorm #hurricane #intensity #ocean #rapidlyintensifyingstorms #saffirsimpsonwindscale #tropicalstorm #typhoon #warmingocean

𝐇𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐥 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬 Hurricane Beryl, which left a trail of destruction in the Caribbean, now heads to Jamaica as a strong Category 4 storm. It has been declared the strongest-ever hurricane in July. On Monday, Beryl was declared a Category 5 hurricane — the highest rating on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale; winds had reached 157 miles per hour, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Beryl has shattered many records which experts believe are tied to climate change, as it has developed faster and much earlier in the year. It is the strongest hurricane on record for both June and July and saw the most rapid intensification of any hurricane before September 1 — typically the more intense period of the Atlantic season, which runs from June 1 to November 30. Experts believe global warming will cause hurricanes to intensify more rapidly due to warmer waters, giving people less time to brace for their impact, reports CNBC. The NOAA has forecast an 85% chance of an “above-normal” 2024 hurricane season in the Atlantic - 17 to 25 named storms versus an average of 14, and eight to 13 hurricanes versus an average of seven. Four to seven of these are likely to develop into major hurricanes, compared with an average of three. Beryl amassed its strength from warm waters of the Atlantic basin. Ocean temperatures in the Atlantic Basin are currently at record-warm levels and were closer in May to the usual level of late August, according to the NOAA. Six people have so far been killed by the hurricane - three in Grenada and Carriacou, one in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and two in northern Venezuela, as per the Associated Press. Regions of South Texas are within the forecast cone for Hurricane Beryl's potential arrival this weekend, posing risks of heavy rains, hazardous rip currents, and powerful winds, reports Fox Weather. datasurfr.ai will continue to monitor the progress of Hurricane Beryl.
