That's not a question. It's a preposterous claim. Trot out your

Obviously, if you will ignore damage from severe weather, like the USA
is doing to Puerto Rico, you won't see the costs of severe weather in
your calculations.


Obviously if you ignore the fact that severe weather events aren't
actually rising you can say all sorts of outrageous idiocy.


The USA hasn't finsihed paying for the damage caused by Sandy.


How is that relevant to anything. You have made a claim that you only
support by handwavium. You should be able to post a data series of
tropical storms hitting the US by year and severity and show that it
is essentially monotonically increasing by year if your claim is true.
You can't do that because the data doesn't show that.


But since you refuse to accept that warmer oceans result in more
frequent and more intense storms, there is no point in using logic with you.


Since you fail to present any data to support your astonishing claim,
your claim fails.
