SCIENTISTS AGREE ON HURRICANE CONSENSUS

Hurricane experts attending a workshop organized by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) were unable to agree on global warming's impact, if any, on tropical cyclone (hurricane) frequency and intensity but still managed a consensus press release:
Still, in spite of the controversy, the 125 experts gathered by the WMO did agree that "given the consistency between high resolution global models, regional hurricane models and 'maximum potential intensity' theories, it is likely that some increase in tropical cyclone intensity will occur if the climate continues to warm".
It's also "likely" that "some" scientists are twits.
