Enough energy is built into the system that we're headed for some nasty climate over the next century or two (at the minimum). We're already seeing the effects in the form of more powerful storms (e.g. where we used to get maybe one CAT5 storm per year with some years not getting any, now we get at least one per year).And this is part of it. Cat 5 storms happen all the time...they just don't *stay* Cat 5 storms. They both gain and lose energy as they travel across the ocean towards land.
