Atlanta, October 12 (RHC)-- At least 11 people have died in the U.S. after Hurricane Michael slammed into Florida and Georgia as a Category 4 storm. With winds topping 155 miles per hour, Michael -- now downgraded to a tropical storm -- is the third most powerful storm to ever hit the U.S. mainland.
The southeastern region of the U.S., including North and South Carolina, are experiencing more flooding, just weeks after the area was devastated by Hurricane Florence.
While meteorologists said Hurricane Michael was supercharged from the warmer-than-usual water in the Gulf of Mexico, there was almost no mention of global warming on the cable news networks.
In more climate and weather-related news, in Spain, torrential rains and flash flooding have killed at least 10 people on the island of Mallorca. Nine inches of rain fell in just two hours in what meteorologists are calling a “one in a thousand years” weather event.
