"But rising temperatures do affect these storms in several measurable ways.
Firstly, warmer ocean waters mean storms can pick up more energy, leading to higher wind speeds.
Record high sea surface temperatures were a key reason why US scientists forecast an above-normal Atlantic hurricane season for 2024.
"The high temperatures are mainly due to long-term greenhouse gas emissions.
Secondly, a warmer atmosphere can hold more moisture, leading to more intense rainfall.
Climate change made the extreme rainfall from Hurricane Harvey in 2017 around three times more likely, according to one estimate."
