While attending a rally with Al Gore in Florida today, weather became climate.
Here is the video (h/t to WUWT commenter Alan Robertson)
Hillary Clinton later made the statement on Twitter:
We’ve always had destructive hurricanes, but Hurricane Matthew was likely more destructive because of climate change.

Followed by Al Gore saying:
“from a tropical storm to a Category 5 hurricane in just 36 hours, that’s extremely unusual”
Maybe, as I don’t have stats on that, but Matthew only spent 6 hours as a category 5 storm, the record was the “Cuba” hurricane in 1932 with 78 hours as a Cat5.
IMHO, @HillaryClinton is the right choice in this election if we care about solving the climate crisis. https://t.co/4Dkw0RKDfi

What crisis? The worst hurricane ever to hit the USA was The Great Galveston Hurricane in 1900, which killed up to 6000 people, long before CO2 ever became an issue.
