Rising global temperatures is likely to increase 'the number of very intense hurricanes' while 'rising sea level will increase the threat of storm surge', according to NOAA, a federal agency
The hurricane barrelled into the Gulf coastline in the early hours of Thursday, with sustained 150mph winds. Officials warned it would bring an"unsurvivable" storm surge as high as 20ft for coastal areas. Authorities had urged residents on the coast to evacuate, but not everyone did before winds started buffeting trees and thousands of homes and businesses lost power. So far one fatality has been reported.
