Hurricane Hermine hitting Florida ended a historic 11-year drought of hurricanes making landfall in Florida. Climate science deniers had grabbed onto that lull to claim global warming wasn't worsening storms.

Meanwhile, Hermine has provided new evidence that global warming is fueling tropical storms.
