Yep. I would go further to say that we won't know for that long what are the true average numbers of storms per year.

The thing is Neo in the last 40 years we're really come a long way when it comes to identifying and monitoring the weather out at sea. Before the 60's the only way somebody knew there was a storm was if they happened to fly or sail through it. So i'd be surprised if there wasn't a big increase in the count since we've put those electronic eyes up in the sky.

I would say its both human numbers and human activities are equally to blame. As for a solution, I don't see a ready one available yet, but does that mean we should just ignore it?
Nobody is ignoring it but i'm wary of throwing lots of money at things that won't actually address the problem.
