Climate Change Made Hurricane Helene 500 Times More Likely, Killing Over 200, Study Finds
Oct 9, 2024, 05:16 AM
A new study reports that climate change made Hurricane Helene more intense and deadly. The hurricane, which killed more than 200 people and caused widespread destruction in parts of the US, had its winds and rain significantly boosted due to the effects of climate change. The study indicates that the hot waters in the Gulf of Mexico, made 500 times more likely due to climate change, amplified the hurricane's power. Scientists warn that similar impacts are likely for future storms like Hurricane Milton.
