The question is — has the sun not quite set on storm season ‘07, or is storm season ‘08 getting off to a very early start?

    This is an attempt to attach normal winter storms in the Atlantic to the, by now, throughly discredited myth that Global Warming=More Storms. It is likely such storms are perfectly normal and were never reported or commented on in the past. Now that they fit the template of alarmist global warming advocates such tidbits as this are seized upon as news.
