Rising sea levels and environmental changes will make sequential damaging hurricanes more likely across the globe as the century progresses, study says

Getting hit with one hurricane is bad enough, but new research from Princeton University's engineering school shows that back-to-back versions may become common for many areas in coming decades.

Using computer simulations, scientists calculated that one hurricane hitting the same place soon after another could happen every two to three years.

What used to be a rare one-two punch of consecutive hurricanes hitting about the same place in the United States weeks apart seems to be happening more often, and a new study says climate change will make back-to-back storms more frequent and nastier in the future. Using computer simulations, scientists at Princeton University calculate that…

Climate change is making flooding and wind damage from hurricanes more common in the U.S. That means dangerous storms are getting more frequent, even though the total number of storms isn't changing.

Louisiana and Florida residents have already felt it.

A new study says that back-to-back hurricanes that hit the same general place in the United States seem to be happening more often. And Mondays study says climate change will make consecutive storms more of a regular occurrence. Back-to-back hurricanes within a few weeks used to happen every few decades. The study says depending on how much carbon pollution is spewed, it could happen more like every two or three years. Louisiana had two back-to-back hurricanes in 2021 and five storms in 2020. Fl...
