Yup. Severe weather in the U.S. is at an all time low. It's hard to blame people who get their info from the sensationalistic media and politicians, but have they no memories of years when 4 or 5 hurricanes would hit the country, or bad tornado seasons when dozens towns got hit, or prior droughts, or big wildfires? I sure do.

We're living in good times. We should enjoy it!

The most active period for major hurricanes in the US was 1931-1960. The frequency of major hurricanes is now about half what it was 60 years ago. The most intense hurricane to ever hit the US occurred in 1935.

The number of F3-F5 tornadoes has been trending steadily down since 1960.

Of the 25 deadliest tornadoes in U.S history, only one has occured in the last 50 years.

The Palmer Drought Severity Index globally over the past 60 years they show little change in drought.
